English Standard Version
5 Blessed is the man
who fills his quiver with them!
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies (A)in the gate.[a]
Blessed Is Everyone Who Fears the Lord
A Song of (B)Ascents.
128 (C)Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,
who (D)walks in his ways!
2 You (E)shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands;
you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.

within your house;
your children will be like (G)olive shoots
around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed
who fears the Lord.
5 (H)The Lord bless you (I)from Zion!
May you see (J)the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life!
