Wohl Dem, Der In Gottesfurcht Steht

Author: Martin Luther Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Wohl dem, der in Gottesfurcht steht, Und der auf seinem Wege geht; Dein eigen Hand dich nähren soll, So lebst du recht und geht dir wohl. 2 Dein Weib wird in dei’m Hause sein Wie ein’ Reben voll Trauben fein, Und dein’ Kinder um deinen Tisch Wie Ölpflanzen, gesund und frisch. 3 Sich so reich Segen hängt dem an, Wo in Gottes Furcht lebt ein Mann, Von ihm lässt der alt’ Fluch und Zorn, Den Menschenkindern angebor’n. 4 Aus Zion wird Gott segnen dich, Dass du wirst schauen stetiglich Das Glück der Stadt Jerusalem, Für Gott in Gnaden angenehm. 5 Fristen wird er das Leben dein Und mit Güte stets bei dir sein, Dass du sehen wirst Kindes Kind Und dass Israel Friede findt.
