Psalms 128
Theme: God, the true head of the home. (This is called the marriage prayer because it was often sung at Israelite marriages.) God will reward your devotion to him with inner peace.
A Song of degrees.
1Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways. +
2For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. +
3Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table. +
4Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
5The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. +
6Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel. +
