Psalm 128: a fresh translation to touch the heart and mind (CEB, 2011)

A pilgrimage song / / /
Everyone who honors the LORD,
who walks in God's ways,
is truly happy!
You will definitely enjoy what you've worked hard for --
you'll be happy;
and things will go well for you.
In your house, your wife will be like a vine full of fruit.
All around your table, your children will be like olive trees, freshly planted.
That's how it goes for anyone who honors the LORD:
they will be blessed!
May the LORD bless you from Zion.
May you experience Jerusalem's goodness your whole life long.
And may you see your grandchildren.
Peace be on Israel!
