1How blessed are all who fear the LORD as they follow in his ways. | 1How joyful are those who fear the LORD— all who follow his ways! |
2You will eat from the work of your hands; you will be happy, and it will go well for you. | 2You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be! |
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children like olive shoots surrounding your table. | 3Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they sit around your table. |
4See how the man will be blessed who fears the LORD. | 4That is the LORD’s blessing for those who fear him. |
5May the LORD bless you from Zion, and may you observe the prosperity of Jerusalem every day that you live! | 5May the LORD continually bless you from Zion. May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live. |
6And may you see your children's children! Peace be on Israel! | 6May you live to enjoy your grandchildren. May Israel have peace! |
