Psalms 128
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1A Song of Ascents. Happy is every one that feareth the LORD, that walketh in His ways.
1Ὠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. Πλεονάκις ἐπολέμησάν με ἐκ νεότητός μου, εἰπάτω δὴ Ἰσραήλ·
2When thou eatest the labour of thy hands, happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
2Πλεονάκις ἐπολέμησάν με ἐκ νεότητός μου, καὶ γὰρ οὐκ ἠδυνήθησάν μοι.
3Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of thy house; thy children like olive plants, round about thy table.
3Ἐπὶ τὸν νῶτόν μου ἐτέκταινον οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ, ἐμάκρυναν τὴν ἀνομίαν αὐτῶν.
4Behold, surely thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
4Κύριος δίκαιος συνέκοψεν αὐχένας ἁμαρτωλῶν.
5The LORD bless thee out of Zion; and see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life;
5Αἰσχυνθήτωσαν καὶ ἀποστραφήτωσαν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω πάντες οἱ μισοῦντες Σιών.
6And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
6Γενηθήτωσαν ὡσεὶ χόρτος δωμάτων, ὃς πρὸ τοῦ ἐκσπασθῆναι ἐξηράνθη·
