Amplified Bible
Psalms 128
Blessedness of the Fear of the LORD.
1 (C1)Blessed happy and sheltered by God's favor is everyone who fears the LORD and worships Him with obedience,
Who (C2)walks in His ways and lives according to His commandments. (VR1)
2 For you shall (C1)eat the (C2)fruit of the labor of your hands,
You will be happy and blessed and (C3)it will be well with you.
3 Your wife shall be like a (C1)fruitful vine
Within the innermost part of your house;
Your children will be like (C2)olive plants
Around your table.
4 Behold, for so shall the man be blessed and divinely favored
Who fears the LORD and worships Him with obedience.
5 May (C1)the LORD bless you (C2)from Zion His holy mountain,
And may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life;
6 Indeed, may you see your family perpetuated in your (C1)children's children.
(C2)Peace be upon Israel!
