Psalms 128:2 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands (Isaiah 3:10) - instead of 'a nation which thou knowest not eating up the fruit of thy land, and all thy labours,' (Deuteronomy 28:33).

Happy shalt thou be, and it shall, be well with thee - from Deuteronomy 33:29; literally, 'oh thy happinesses! and good (is) to thee.' Compare the contemporary prophecy, Zechariah 8:10-13.
