Psalm 128

Happy he, who God obeys,
Nor from his direction straies:
Thou shalt of thy labours feed;
All shall to thy wish succeed:
Like a faire and fruitfull Vine,
By thy House, thy Wife shall joyne:
Sons, obedient to command,
Shall about thy Table stand;
Like greene plants of Olives, set
By the moistning rivulet.
He who feares the Power above,
Thus shall prosper in his love.
God shall thee from Sion blesse;
Thou shalt joy in the successe
Which the Lord will Salem give,
While thou hast a day to live:
Thou shalt see our Israels peace,
And thy childrens large increase.
