Psalms 128:3

Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
bearing abundant fruit in your home.
Your children shall be like olive shoots
around your table.
[The table, or dining table, is an important symbol of family unity in the Bible. To have a table where everyone gathers and where there is always a place for the widow, the fatherless, and the stranger is to have a family that lives in accordance with God's intentions for our life on earth. There is never a shortage of food there because God always blesses those who live according to His precepts.]
