New Century Version NCV
English Standard Version ESV
1 Happy are those who respect the Lord and obey him.
1
Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways!
2 You will enjoy what you work for, and you will be blessed with good things.
2
You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.
3 Your wife will give you many children, like a vine that produces much fruit. Your children will bring you much good, like olive branches that produce many olives.
3
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table.
4 This is how the man who respects the Lord will be blessed.
4
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the Lord.
5 May the Lord bless you from Mount Zion; may you enjoy the good things of Jerusalem all your life.
5
The Lord bless you from Zion! May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life!
6 May you see your grandchildren. Let there be peace in Israel. A song for going up to worship.
6
May you see your children’s children! Peace be upon Israel!
