1 |
Blessd is each one that fears the Lord, |
|
|
|
|
and walketh in his ways; |
|
2 |
For of thy labour thou shalt eat, |
|
|
|
|
and happy be always. |
|
3 |
Thy wife shall as a fruitful vine |
|
|
|
|
by thy house sides be found: |
|
|
Thy children like to olive-plants |
|
|
|
|
about thy table round. |
|
|
||
|
4 |
Behold, the man that fears the Lord, |
|
|
|
|
thus blessed shall he be. |
|
5 |
The Lord shall out of Sion give |
|
|
|
|
his blessing unto thee: |
|
|
Thou shalt Jeruslems good behold |
|
|
|
|
whilst thou on earth dost dwell. |
|
6 |
Thou shalt thy childrens children see, |
|
|
|
|
and peace on Israel. |
