Psalms 128

The Blessed Fear of the LORD

A song of ascents.

1For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours.

2Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your sons like olive shoots sitting around your table.

3In this way indeed shall blessing come to the man who fears the LORD.

4May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life,

5that you may see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!
