The Blessed Fear of the LORD
1A song of ascents.
Blessed are all who fear the LORD,
who walk in His ways!
2For when you eat the fruit of your labor,
blessings and prosperity will be yours.
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
flourishing within your house,
your sons like olive shoots
sitting around your table.
4In this way indeed shall blessing come
to the man who fears the LORD.
5May the LORD bless you from Zion,
that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life,
6that you may see
your children’s children.
Peace be upon Israel!
