The household blessing: 'Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labor of thy hands.' Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of thy house; thy children like olive plants round about thy table. 'Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth Jehovah.' The blessing widens from house to city to nation: 'Jehovah bless thee out of Zion… yea, see thou thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel.'
