1Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.

1Blessed 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.

2For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

2For thou shalt eat the labor 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.

3Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy 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.

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.

4Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.

4Behold, thus shall the man be blessed That feareth Jehovah.

4See! this is the blessing of the worshipper of the Lord.

5The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

5Jehovah bless thee out of Zion: And see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

5May the Lord send you blessing out of Zion: may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.

6Yea, see thou thy children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.

6May you see your children's children. Peace be on Israel.
