A song of the ascents.
1The good fortune of anyone who lives in awe of Yahweh,
who walks in his ways!
2Because you will eat the fruit of the palms of your hands,
your blessings and good things of yours.
3Your wife like a fruitful vine
in the inner rooms of your house,
Your children like the slips of olive trees
round your table.
4There, surely thus will he be blessed,
a man who lives in awe of Yahweh.
5May Yahweh bless you from Tsiyyon;
you can look at the good things of Yerushalaim,
All the days of your life,
6and look at your grandchildren;
well-being [be] on Yisra’el!
God be in head and in my understanding;
God be in my eyes and in my looking;
God be in my mouth and in my speaking;
God be in my heart and in my thinking;
God be at my end and at my departing.
