Psalm 128:2

Blessings For Those Who Fear God

¹ Blessed [happy and sheltered by God’s favor] is everyone who fears the Lord [and worships Him with obedience],
Who walks in His ways and lives according to His commandments.
² 
For you shall eat the fruit of [the labor of] your hands,
You will be happy and blessed and it will be well with you.
³
Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
Within the innermost part of your house;
Your children will be like olive plants
Around your table.
