New King James Version | NET Bible |
1A Song of Ascents. Blessed is every one who fears the LORD, Who walks in His ways. | 1A song of ascents. How blessed is every one of the LORD's loyal followers, each one who keeps his commands! |
2When you eat the labor of your hands, You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you. | 2You will eat what you worked so hard to grow. You will be blessed and secure. |
3Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table. | 3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in the inner rooms of your house; your children will be like olive branches, as they sit all around your table. |
4Behold, thus shall the man be blessed Who fears the LORD. | 4Yes indeed, the man who fears the LORD will be blessed in this way. |
5The LORD bless you out of Zion, And may you see the good of Jerusalem All the days of your life. | 5May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you might see Jerusalem prosper all the days of your life, |
6Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel! | 6and that you might see your grandchildren. May Israel experience peace! |
