1 Happy is the worshipper of the Lord, who is walking in his ways.
1 Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, That walketh in his ways.
2You will have the fruit of the work of your hands: happy will you be, and all will be well for you.
2For thou shalt eat the labor of thy hands: Happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
3Your wife will be like a fertile vine in the inmost parts of your house: your children will be like olive plants round your table.
3Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine, In the innermost parts of thy house; Thy children like olive plants, Round about thy table.
4See! this is the blessing of the worshipper of the Lord.
4Behold, thus shall the man be blessed That feareth Jehovah.
