Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him.
2 You will eat what your hands have produced; you will be happy and prosperous.

You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in the inner parts of your house. Your children around the table will be like shoots from an olive tree.

Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table.
4 This is the kind of blessing that will fall on him who fears ADONAI.

Yes, this will be the blessing for the man who fears the LORD.
5 May ADONAI bless you from Tziyon! May you see Yerushalayim prosper all the days of your life,

May the LORD bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
