Shir hammaalot,
ashrei kol yere adonai,
haholekh bidrakhav.
Yegia kapekha ki tokhel,
ashrekha vetov lakh.
Eshtekha kegefen poriyya,
beyarketei veitekha,
banekha kishtilei zeitim,
saviv leshulhanekha.
Hinne khikhen yevorakh gaver,
yere adonai.
Yevarekhekha adonai mitstsiyyon,
uree betuv yerushalayim,
kol yemei hayyekha.
Uree vanim levanekha,
shalom al yisrael.

English.png English translation

A Song of Ascents.
Happy is every one who fears the Lord,
Who walks in his ways.
When you eat the labor of your hands,
You will be happy, and it will be well with you.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine,
In the innermost parts of your house;
Your children like olive shoots,
Around your table.
Behold, surely thus shall the man be blessed
Who fears the Lord.
The Lord bless you from Zion!
May you see the good of Jerusalem
All the days of your life!
May you see your children's children!
Peace be upon Israel!
