1 Everyone who honors the LORD, who walks in God's ways, is truly happy!
1
Happy is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways.
2 You will definitely enjoy what you've worked hard for— you'll be happy; and things will go well for you.
2
You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be happy, and it shall go well with you.
3 In your house, your wife will be like a vine full of fruit. All around your table, your children will be like olive trees, freshly planted.
3
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table.
4 That's how it goes for anyone who honors the LORD: they will be blessed!
4
Thus shall the man be blessed who fears the Lord.
5 May the LORD bless you from Zion. May you experience Jerusalem's goodness your whole life long.
5
The Lord bless you from Zion. May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 And may you see your grandchildren. Peace be on Israel!
6
May you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
