1 {A song of the stairs} Blessed are all they that fear the LORD, and walk in his ways.
 2 For thou shalt eat the labours of thine own hands; O well is thee, and happy shalt thou be.
 3 Thy wife shall be as the fruitful vine upon the walls of thy house, thy children like the olive branches round about thy table.
 4 Lo, thus shall the man be blessed, that feareth the LORD.
 5 The LORD shall so bless thee out of Zion, that thou shalt see Jerusalem in prosperity all thy life long.
 6 Yea, that thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
