1 Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him.2 You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table.4 Yes, this will be the blessing for the man who fears the LORD.5 May the LORD bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.6 May you live to see your children's children — peace be on Israel.

1 Canticum graduum. [Spe expugnaverunt me a juventute mea,dicat nunc Isral ;2 spe expugnaverunt me a juventute mea :etenim non potuerunt mihi.3 Supra dorsum meum fabricaverunt peccatores ;prolongaverunt iniquitatem suam.4 Dominus justusconcidit cervices peccatorum.5 Confundantur, et convertantur retrorsumomnes qui oderunt Sion.6 Fiant sicut fnum tectorum,quod priusquam evellatur exaruit :7 de quo non implevit manum suam qui metit,et sinum suum qui manipulos colligit.8 Et non dixerunt qui prteribant :Benedictio Domini super vos.Benediximus vobis in nomine Domini.]
