2You will eat what you worked so hard to grow. You will be blessed and secure. | 2You will eat from the work of your hands; you will be happy, and it will go well for you. |
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in the inner rooms of your house; your children will be like olive branches, as they sit all around your table. | 3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children like olive shoots surrounding your table. |
4Yes indeed, the man who fears the LORD will be blessed in this way. | 4See how the man will be blessed who fears the LORD. |
5May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you might see Jerusalem prosper all the days of your life, | 5May the LORD bless you from Zion, and may you observe the prosperity of Jerusalem every day that you live! |
6and that you might see your grandchildren. May Israel experience peace! | 6And may you see your children's children! Peace be on Israel! |
