Psal. 128. Beati omnes qui.
Canticum Graduum.
1
All happinesse, who ever thou art,attend upon thy daies,
To feare the Lord that fram'st thy heart,
thy feet, to walke his waies.
2
The labour of thy hands, thy messeof savoury meat shall be:
Thee, and thy dwelling place to blesse,
shall goodnesse dwell with thee.
3
Thy wife, as spreads the fruitfull Vine,thy houses sides shall bound:
Thy sons, like Olive-plants, shall twine
about thy Table round.
4
These blessings loe, and many more,this life shall here afford;
And better farre there are in store,
for them that feare the Lord.
5
Such happinesse the Lord to theeshall out of Sion give:
The God of Salem shalt thou see,
while thou hast day to live.
6
And ended ere thy daies shall be,thy seed to prosper well:
Thy childrens children shalt thou see,
and peace on Israel.
