Psalm 128:3
New English Translation
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine[a]
in the inner rooms of your house;
your children[b] will be like olive branches,
as they sit all around your table.
Footnotes
- Psalm 128:3 sn The metaphor of the fruitful vine pictures the wife as fertile; she will give her husband numerous children (see the next line).
- Psalm 128:3 tn One could translate “sons” (see Ps 127:3 and the note on the word “sons” there), but here the term seems to refer more generally to children of both genders.
