Happy are those who respect the Lord and obey him.

2You will enjoy what you work for,

and you will be blessed with good things.

3Your wife will give you many children,

like a vine that produces much fruit.

Your children will bring you much good,

like olive branches that produce many olives.

4This is how the man who respects the Lord

will be blessed.

5May the Lord bless you from Mount Zion;

may you enjoy the good things of Jerusalem all your life.

6May you see your grandchildren.

Let there be peace in Israel.

Round about thy table.

All the days of thy life.

Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children,

And peace upon Israel.
