Psalm 127 [MT 128]

[A Song of Degrees.] Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.

᾿ῼδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. - ΜΑΚΑΡΙΟΙ πάντες οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν Κύριον, οἱ πορευόμενοι ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ.

Thou shalt eat the labours of thy hands: blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee.

τοὺς πόνους τῶν καρπῶν σου φάγεσαι· μακάριος εἶ, καὶ καλῶς σοι ἔσται.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of thy house: thy children as young olive-plants round about thy table.

ἡ γυνή σου ὡς ἄμπελος εὐθηνοῦσα ἐν τοῖς κλίτεσι τῆς οἰκίας σου· οἱ υἱοί σου ὡς νεόφυτα ἐλαιῶν κύκλῳ τῆς τραπέζης σου.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.

ἰδοὺ οὕτως εὐλογηθήσεται ἄνθρωπος ὁ φοβούμενος τὸν Κύριον.

May the Lord bless thee out of Sion; and mayest thou see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

εὐλογήσαι σε Κύριος ἐκ Σιών, καὶ ἴδοις τὰ ἀγαθὰ ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς σου·

And mayest thou see thy children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.

καὶ ἴδοις υἱοὺς τῶν υἱῶν σου. εἰρήνη ἐπὶ τὸν ᾿Ισραήλ.
