1A song of the degrees.
2When thou eatest the labor of thy hands: then wilt thou be happy, and it shall be well with thee.
3Thy wife is then as a fruitful vine in the recesses of thy house: thy children, like olive-plants round about thy table.
4Behold, truly thus shall be blessed the man that feareth the Lord.
5May the Lord bless thee out of Zion: and see thou the happiness of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6And see thou thy children’s children: may there be peace upon Israel.
