Psalms 128 — 4 originals side by side

Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

128:1
שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲל֥וֹת אַ֭שְׁרֵי כׇּל־יְרֵ֣א יְהֹוָ֑ה הַ֝הֹלֵ֗ךְ בִּדְרָכָֽיו׃
ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν μακάριοι πάντες οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν κύριον οἱ πορευόμενοι ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ
Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
—
Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways.
128:2
יְגִ֣יעַ כַּ֭פֶּיךָ כִּ֣י תֹאכֵ֑ל אַ֝שְׁרֶ֗יךָ וְט֣וֹב לָֽךְ׃
τοὺς πόνους τῶν καρπῶν σου φάγεσαι μακάριος εἶ καὶ καλῶς σοι ἔσται
Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis : beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
ማኅሌት ፡ ዘበመዓርጊሁ ። ብፁዓን ፡ ኵሎሙ ፡ እለ ፡ ይፈርህዎ ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር ፤ እለ ፡ የሐውሩ ፡ በፍናዊሁ ።
For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.
128:3
אֶשְׁתְּךָ֤׀ כְּגֶ֥פֶן פֹּרִיָּה֮ בְּיַרְכְּתֵ֢י בֵ֫יתֶ֥ךָ בָּ֭נֶיךָ כִּשְׁתִלֵ֣י זֵיתִ֑ים סָ֝בִ֗יב לְשֻׁלְחָנֶֽךָ׃
ἡ γυνή σου ὡς ἄμπελος εὐθηνοῦσα ἐν τοῖς κλίτεσι τῆς οἰκίας σου οἱ υἱοί σου ὡς νεόφυτα ἐλαιῶν κύκλῳ τῆς τραπέζης σου
Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuae ; filii tui sicut novellae olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae.
ፍሬ ፡ ጻማከ ፡ ትሴሰይ ። ብፁዕ ፡ አንተ ፡ ወሠናይ ፡ ለከ ።
Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table.
128:4
הִנֵּ֣ה כִי־כֵ֭ן יְבֹ֥רַךְ גָּ֗בֶר יְרֵ֣א יְהֹוָֽה׃
ἰδοὺ οὕτως εὐλογηθήσεται ἄνθρωπος ὁ φοβούμενος τὸν κύριον
Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.
ብእሲትከ ፡ ከመ ፡ ወይን ፡ ስሙር ፡ ውስተ ፡ ጽርሐ ፡ ቤትከ ፤
Behold, this is how the man who fears Yahweh is blessed.
128:5
יְבָרֶכְךָ֥ יְהֹוָ֗ה מִצִּ֫יּ֥וֹן וּ֭רְאֵה בְּט֣וּב יְרוּשָׁלָ֑͏ִם כֹּ֝֗ל יְמֵ֣י חַיֶּֽיךָ׃
εὐλογήσαι σε κύριος ἐκ Σιων καὶ ἴδοις τὰ ἀγαθὰ Ιερουσαλημ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς σου
Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitae tuae.
ወውሉድከ ፡ ከመ ፡ ተክለ ፡ ዘይት ፡ ሐይት ፡ ሐዲስ ፡ ዐውድ ፡ ማእድከ ።
May Yahweh bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
128:6
וּרְאֵֽה־בָנִ֥ים לְבָנֶ֑יךָ שָׁ֝ל֗וֹם עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ {פ}
καὶ ἴδοις υἱοὺς τῶν υἱῶν σου εἰρήνη ἐπὶ τὸν Ισραηλ
Et videas filios filiorum tuorum : pacem super Israël.
ናሁ ፡ ከመዝ ፡ ይትባረክ ፡ ብእሲ ፡ ዘይፈርሆ ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር ። ይባርከከ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ እምጽዮን ፤ ወትሬኢ ፡ ሠናይታ ፡ ለኢየሩሳሌም ፡ በኵሉ ፡ መዋዕለ ፡ ሕይወትከ ። ወትሬኢ ፡ ውሉደ ፡ ውሉድከ ፤ ሰላም ፡ ላዕለ ፡ እስራኤል ።
Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
