Blessed is the man who fears the Lord

(Psalm 128:1-6)
1
Praise Yahweh! How fortunate are those who have an awesome respect for him, those who happily obey his commands.
2
Their children will prosper in their land; God will bless their descendants.
3
Their families will be wealthy, and their righteous deeds will endure forever.
4
For those who honor God, it is as if a light were shining on them in the darkness, on those who are kind, merciful and righteous.
5
Things will go well for those who generously lend money to others and who conduct their businesses honestly.
6
Righteous people will not be overwhelmed because of their troubles; other people will always treasure their memories of them.
7
They are not afraid when they receive bad news; they confidently trust in Yahweh.
8
They are confident and not afraid because they know that they will see God defeat their enemies.
9
They give things generously to poor people; their kind deeds will endure forever, and they will be exalted and honored.
10
Wicked people see those things and are angry; they gnash their teeth angrily, but they will disappear and die. The wicked things that they want to do will never happen.
