Psalms 128:1

¹Praise the LORD!Blessed ^[+] is the man who fears the LORD,^[+] who delights greatly in his commandments.

¹Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the LORD’s law.

⁵⁰His mercy is for generations and generations on those who fear him.

¹³Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.

³¹So the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.

¹¹The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his loving kindness.

¹Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers; ²but his delight is in the LORD’s ^[+] law. On his law he meditates day and night. ³He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.

¹Unless the LORD builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain.

¹⁷But the LORD’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,

¹³He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.
