12 May our sons in their youth

be like plants that grow up strong.

May our daughters be like stately pillars

which adorn the corners of a palace.

13 May our barns be filled

with crops of every kind.

May the sheep in our fields

bear young by the tens of thousands.

14 May our cattle reproduce plentifully

without miscarriage or loss.

May there be no cries of distress in our streets.

15 Happy is the nation of whom this is true;

happy are the people whose God is the Lord!
