## Psalm 127 (Catholic Public Domain Version)

1. A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.
2. For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you.
3. Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table.
4. Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord.
5. May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life.
6. And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.

## Psalm 127 in Latin (Clementine Vulgate, 1592)

1. Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
2. Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
3. Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuæ; filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum in circuitu mensæ tuæ.
4. Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.
5. Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.
6. Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.
