Psalms 128

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.	1 A song of ascents. Happy are all who fear the LORD, who walk in the ways of God.
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.	2 What your hands provide you will enjoy; you will be happy and prosper:
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.	3 Like a fruitful vine your wife within your home, Like olive plants your children around your table.
4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.	4 Just so will they be blessed who fear 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.	5 May the LORD bless you from Zion, all the days of your life That you may share Jerusalem's joy
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.	6 and live to see your children's children. Peace upon Israel!
