Psalms 128 · Grade 4

The Blessed Household

Name Date

Read and Think

Psalm 128 is titled A Song of Ascents and names no author. It begins, Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways. To fear Yahweh means to honor him with deep respect and trust. That fear shows in how a person walks, the choices of daily life.

The blessing reaches into ordinary things: work, meals, and family. You will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you. A wife is pictured as a fruitful vine in the house, and children like olive shoots around the table. Olive trees live for centuries, so the picture suggests a family that grows strong.

The last verses widen the blessing from one home to the whole people. May Yahweh bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life. Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
