A Song of degrees.

1 Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.

A Song of Ascents.

1 Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh,

who walks in his ways.

2 For you will eat the labor of your hands.

You will be happy, and it will be well with you.

3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house,

your children like olive shoots around your table.

4 Behold, this is how the man who fears Yahweh is blessed.

5 May Yahweh bless you out of Zion,

and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 Yes, may you see your children’s children.

Peace be upon Israel.
