The Book of Psalms
Psalm 127  |
|
127:1 A gradual canticle. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; that walk in his ways. Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
|
|
127:2 For thou shalt eat the labours of thy hands: blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee. Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
|
|
127:3 Thy wife as a fruitful vine, on the sides of thy house. Thy children as olive plants round about thy table. Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuæ; filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum in circuitu mensæ tuæ.
|
|
127:4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord. Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.
|
|
127:5 May the Lord bless thee out of Sion: and mayst thou see the good things of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.
|
|
127:6 And mayst thou see thy children's children, peace upon Israel. Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.
