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