¹Bless’d is each one that fears the Lord,

and walketh in his ways;

²For of thy labour thou shalt eat,

and happy be always.

³Thy wife shall as a fruitful vine

by thy house’ sides be found:

Thy children like to olive-plants

about thy table round.

⁴Behold, the man that fears the Lord,

thus blessed shall he be.

⁵The Lord shall out of Sion give

his blessing unto thee:

Thou shalt Jerus’lem’s good behold

whilst thou on earth dost dwell.

⁶Thou shalt thy children’s children see,

and peace on Israel.
