The Complete Jewish Bible CJB
King James Version KJV
1 A song of ascents: How happy is everyone who fears ADONAI, who lives by his ways.
1
Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.
2 You will eat what your hands have produced; you will be happy and prosperous.
2
For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
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.
3
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
4 This is the kind of blessing that will fall on him who fears ADONAI.
4
Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
5 May ADONAI bless you from Tziyon! May you see Yerushalayim prosper all the days of your life,
5
The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6 and may you live to see your children's children! Shalom on Isra'el.
6
Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
