א שִׁיר, הַמַּעֲלוֹת:
אַשְׁרֵי, כָּל-יְרֵא יְהוָה– הַהֹלֵךְ, בִּדְרָכָיו. |
1 A Song of Ascents. {N}
Happy is every one that feareth the LORD, that walketh in His ways. |
| ב יְגִיעַ כַּפֶּיךָ, כִּי תֹאכֵל; אַשְׁרֶיךָ, וְטוֹב לָךְ. |
2 When thou eatest the labour of thy hands, happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. |
ג אֶשְׁתְּךָ, כְּגֶפֶן פֹּרִיָּה– בְּיַרְכְּתֵי בֵיתֶךָ:
בָּנֶיךָ, כִּשְׁתִלֵי זֵיתִים– סָבִיב, לְשֻׁלְחָנֶךָ. |
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of thy house; {N}
thy children like olive plants, round about thy table. |
| ד הִנֵּה כִי-כֵן, יְבֹרַךְ גָּבֶר– יְרֵא יְהוָה. |
4 Behold, surely thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD. |
| ה יְבָרֶכְךָ יְהוָה, מִצִּיּוֹן: וּרְאֵה, בְּטוּב יְרוּשָׁלִָם–כֹּל, יְמֵי חַיֶּיךָ. |
5 The LORD bless thee out of Zion; and see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life; |
| ו וּרְאֵה-בָנִים לְבָנֶיךָ: שָׁלוֹם, עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל. |
6 And see thy children’s children. Peace be upon Israel! {P} |
