1 Blessed are all who fear the Lord,
who walk in obedience to him.

your children will be like olive shoots
round your table.

may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life.

In the innermost parts of thy house;
Thy children like olive plants,
Round about thy table.

That feareth Jehovah.

And see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
