New Living Translation NLT
English Standard Version ESV
1 How joyful are those who fear the LORD — all who follow his ways!
1
Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways!
2 You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be!
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 be like a fruitful grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they sit around your table.
3
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table.
4 That is the LORD ’s blessing for those who fear him.
4
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the Lord.
5 May the LORD continually bless you from Zion. May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live.
5
The Lord bless you from Zion! May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life!
6 May you live to enjoy your grandchildren. May Israel have peace!
6
May you see your children’s children! Peace be upon Israel!
