“More blessed than sons is Asher;
May he be favored by his brothers,
And may he dip his foot in oil.
“[O God] turn your gaze from him so that he may rest,
Until he fulfills his day [on earth] like a hired man.
“His sons favor the poor [and pay his obligations],
And his hands give back his [ill-gotten] wealth.
“He will pray to God, and He shall be favorable to him,
So that he looks at His face with joy;
For God restores to man His righteousness [that is, his right standing with God—with its joys].
“For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing
When he takes delight and is pleased with God and obeys Him.’

And of those after them who approve [and are influenced by] their words. Selah.

They delight in lies.
They bless with [the words of] their mouths,
But inwardly they curse. Selah.

And feel pity for her dust.
Accept and take pleasure in the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD,
And teach me Your ordinances.

Nor does He take pleasure in the legs (strength) of a man.
The LORD favors those who fear and worship Him [with awe-inspired reverence and obedience],
Those who wait for His mercy and lovingkindness.
For the LORD takes pleasure in His people;
He will beautify the humble with salvation.
For those whom the LORD loves He corrects,
Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.
Go your way, eat your bread with joy and drink your wine with a cheerful heart [if you are righteous, wise, and in the hands of God]; for God has already approved and accepted your works.
“Speak [fn]tenderly to Jerusalem,
And call out to her, that her time of compulsory service in warfare is finished,
That her wickedness has been taken away [since her punishment is sufficient],
That she has received from the LORD’S hand
Double [punishment] for all her sins.”
Thus says the LORD to this people [Judah], “In the manner and to the degree [already pointed out] they have loved to wander; they have not restrained their feet. Therefore the LORD does not accept them; He will now remember [in detail] their wickedness and punish them for their sins.”
As for My sacrificial offerings,
They sacrifice the meat [as a mere formality] and eat it,
But the LORD is not pleased with them and does not accept them.
Now He will remember and take into account their wickedness and guilt,
And punish them for their sins.
They will return [in captivity] to [another] Egypt [that is, Assyria].
