1A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him. | 1How blessed are all who fear the LORD as they follow in his ways. |
2You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. | 2You will eat from the work of your hands; you will be happy, and it will go well for you. |
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table. | 3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children like olive shoots surrounding your table. |
4Yes, this will be the blessing for the man who fears the LORD. | 4See how the man will be blessed who fears the LORD. |
5May the LORD bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life. | 5May the LORD bless you from Zion, and may you observe the prosperity of Jerusalem every day that you live! |
6May you live to see your children's children-- peace be on Israel. | 6And may you see your children's children! Peace be on Israel! |
