New King James Version | New Living Translation |
1A Song of Ascents. Blessed is every one who fears the LORD, Who walks in His ways. | 1How joyful are those who fear the LORD— all who follow his ways! |
2When you eat the labor of your hands, You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you. | 2You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be! |
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 grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they sit around your table. |
4Behold, thus shall the man be blessed Who fears the LORD. | 4That is the LORD’s blessing for those who fear him. |
5The LORD bless you out of Zion, And may you see the good of Jerusalem All the days of your life. | 5May the LORD continually bless you from Zion. May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live. |
6Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel! | 6May you live to enjoy your grandchildren. May Israel have peace! |
