The Book of Psalms

A Song of degrees.

Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, that walketh in his ways.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thy hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the inner part of thy house; thy children like olive-plants round about thy table.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth Jehovah.

Jehovah will bless thee out of Zion; and mayest thou see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life,

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
