Psalm 127 (128)

Psalm 127, Catholic Public Domain Version

1. A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.

   Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.

2. 2

   For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you.

   Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.

3. 3

   Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table.

   Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuæ; filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum in circuitu mensæ tuæ.

4. 4

   Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord.

   Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.

5. 5

   May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life.

   Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.

6. 6

   And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.

   Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.
