Rotherham(i)
3 Lo! an inheritance from Yahweh, are children, A reward, the fruit of the womb:
4 As arrows in the hand of a warrior, so, are the children of young men.
5 How happy the man who hath filled his quiver with them! They will not be ashamed, but will speak with enemies in the gate.
128 1 [A Song of Ascents.]
How happy is every one that revereth Yahweh, who walketh in his ways! 2 The labour of thine own hands, surely thou shalt eat. How happy thou, and well for thine! 3 Thy wife, like a fruitful vine, within the recesses of thy house,––Thy children, like plantings of olive–trees, round about thy table. 4 Lo! thus, shall be blessed the man who revereth Yahweh. 5 Yahweh will bless thee, out of Zion,––and behold thou the welfare of Jerusalem, all the days of thy life! 6 And behold thou thy children’s children,––Prosperity on Israel!
