Berean Standard Bible
1Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.
1Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in His ways!
2Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.
2For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours.
3The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your sons like olive shoots sitting around your table.
4The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:
4In this way indeed shall blessing come to the man who fears the LORD.
5Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.
5May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life,
6Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:
6that you may see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!
7Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
