| 1 | Song of ascensions Happy every one fearing Jehovah; going in his ways. | Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways! | A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him. | |
| 2 | For thou shalt eat the labor of thy hands: happy thou, and well to thee. | You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you. | You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. | |
| 3 | Thy wife as a vine bearing fruit in the sides of thy house: thy sons as plants of olives round about thy table. | Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table. | Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table. | |
| 4 | Behold, that thus shall the man be praised fearing Jehovah. | Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the LORD. | Yes, this will be the blessing for the man who fears the LORD. | |
| 5 | Jehovah shall bless thee from Zion: and look thou upon the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. | The LORD bless you from Zion! May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life! | May the LORD bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life. | |
| 6 | And see thou the sons to thy sons: peace upon Israel. | May you see your children’s children! Peace be upon Israel! | May you live to see your children’s children— peace be on Israel. | |
