1  ^rBlessed is everyone who fears the Lord,

who ^swalks in his ways!

2  You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands;

you shall be blessed, and ^tit shall be well with you.

3  Your wife will be ^ulike a fruitful vine

within your house;

^vyour children will be ^wlike olive shoots

around your table.

4  Behold, thus shall the man be blessed

who fears the Lord.

5  ^xThe Lord bless you from Zion!

May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem

all the days of your life!

6  May you ^ysee your children’s children!

^zPeace be upon Israel!

1  O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;

my eyes are not raised too high;

I do not occupy myself with things

too great and ^qtoo marvelous for me.

2  But I have calmed and quieted my soul,

like a weaned child with its mother;

like a weaned child is my soul within me.

3  ^rO Israel, hope in the Lord

from this time forth and forevermore.
