1ωδη των αναβαθμων πλεονακιϲ επολεμηϲαν με εκ νεοτητοϲ μου ειπατω δη ϊϲλ 2 3επι του νωτου μου ετεκτενον οι αμαρτωλοι εμακρυναν την ανομιαν αυτων 4κϲ δικαιοϲ ϲυνεκοψεν αυχενα αμαρτωλων 5αιϲχυνθητωϲαν και αποϲτραφητωϲα ειϲ τα οπιϲω παντεϲ οι μειϲουντεϲ ϲιων
1Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways. 2For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. 3Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table. 4Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD. 5The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6γενηθητωϲαν ωϲ χορτοϲ δωματων οϲ προ του εκϲπαϲθηναι εξηρανθη 7ου ουκ επληρωϲεν την χειρα αυτου ο θεριζων και τον κολπον αυτου ο τα δραγματα ϲυλλεγων 8και ουκ ειπαν οι παραγοντεϲ ευλογια κυ εφ ημαϲ ευλογηϲομεν ϋμαϲ εν ονοματι κυ
6Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.
