“Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.
For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.
The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.” – Psalm 128 (KJV)
Psalm 128 (TV – Toby version)
A Song of a journey to a higher place.
1 Happy is the man who fears the LORD,
Who walks in His trodden road, His path.
2 When you eat the labor of your hands,
You shall be happy and blessed, and you shall function in your intended purpose.
3 Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
By the border of your house,
Your children like olive plants
All around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the valiant man, the warrior be blessed
Who fears the LORD.
5 The LORD salute and congratulate you out of Zion,
And may you behold the beauty, gladness, and joy of Jerusalem
All the days of your life.
6 Yes, you shall see your children’s children and peace upon Israel!
We had this Psalm (among many other passages) read at our wedding. 🙂
