New International Version | New Living Translation |
1A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him. | 1How joyful are those who fear the LORD— all who follow his ways! |
2You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. | 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 will be like olive shoots around 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. |
4Yes, this will be the blessing for the man who fears the LORD. | 4That is the LORD’s blessing for those who fear him. |
5May the LORD bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life. | 5May the LORD continually bless you from Zion. May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live. |
6May you live to see your children's children-- peace be on Israel. | 6May you live to enjoy your grandchildren. May Israel have peace! |
