127
(128) A Song of Degrees.
1 Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
2 You shall eat the * labours of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.
3 Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
5 May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
* 127:2 Alex. fruits of your labours.
