A Song of Ascents.

1 Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh,

who walks in his ways.

2 For you will eat the labor of your hands.

You will be happy, and it will be well with you.

3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house,

your children like olive shoots around your table.

4 Behold, this is how the man who fears Yahweh is blessed.

5 May Yahweh bless you out of Zion,

and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 Yes, may you see your children’s children.

Peace be upon Israel.

1 'n Bedevaartslied. Welgeluksalig is elkeen wat die HERE vrees, wat in sy weë wandel!

2 Die opbrings van jou hande sal jy sekerlik eet; gelukkig is jy, en dit gaan met jou goed!

3 Jou vrou is soos 'n vrugbare wingerdstok binne-in jou huis; jou kinders soos olyfboompies rondom jou tafel.

4 Kyk, so sal sekerlik geseënword die man wat die HERE vrees.

5 Mag die HERE jou seën uit Sion, dat jy die voorspoed van Jerusalem mag aanskou al die dae van jou lewe!

6 En dat jy jou kindskinders mag aanskou! Vrede oor Israel!
