249
Blessed is the man whose desire is satisfied with them: he shall not be confounded when he speaketh with his enemies in the gate.
Glory be, etc.
PSALM CXXVII
The happiness of the just
Blessed are all they that fear the Lord, that walk in His ways.
For thou shalt eat the labors of thy hands: blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee.
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the walls of thy house.
Thy children as olive plants, round about thy table.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.
May the Lord bless thee out of Sion, and mayest thou see the good things of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
Mayest thou see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
Glory be, etc.
