Psalm 128

A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.

How joyful are those who fear the Lord
    all who follow his ways!
You will enjoy the fruit of your labor.
    How joyful and prosperous you will be!
Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine,
    flourishing within your home.
Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees
    as they sit around your table.
That is the Lord’s blessing
    for those who fear him.

May the Lord continually bless you from Zion.
    May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live.
May you live to enjoy your grandchildren.
    May Israel have peace!

Blessings of Those Who Fear the Lord

A Song of Ascents.

128 Blessed (A)is every one who fears the Lord,
Who walks in His ways.

(B)When you eat the [a]labor of your hands,
You shall be happy, and it shall be (C)well with you.
Your wife shall be (D)like a fruitful vine
In the very heart of your house,
Your (E)children (F)like olive plants
All around your table.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed
Who fears the Lord.

(G)The Lord bless you out of Zion,
And may you see the good of Jerusalem
All the days of your life.
Yes, may you (H)see your children’s children.

(I)Peace be upon Israel!

敬畏 神的人必享福樂

朝聖之歌(原文作“往上行之歌”)。

128 敬畏耶和華,遵行他的道的人,是有福的。(本節在《馬索拉文本》包括細字標題)

你必吃你親手勞碌得來的,

你必享福,事事順利。

你的妻子在你的內室,

好像多結果子的葡萄樹;

你的兒女環繞著你的桌子,

好像橄欖樹的枝條。

看哪!敬畏耶和華的人

必這樣蒙福。

願耶和華從錫安賜福給你;

願你一生一世得見耶路撒冷的繁榮。

願你得見你兒女的兒女。

願平安歸於以色列。
