Of Numbers 6:24-26

The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you;

The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace."

Bless—To make happy; to make successful; to prosper; to be blessed with peace and plenty.
Psa 1:1-3 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.

Keep—To hold; to retain in one's power or possession; not to lose or part with;

Shine – Radiance, Gleam, Glow, Brightness

Gracious—Favorable; kind; benevolent; merciful; disposed to forgive offenses and impart unmerited blessings.

Countenance—Literally, the contents of a body; the outline and extent which constitutes the whole figure or external appearance. Appropriately, the human face; the whole form of the face, or system of features; visage.

Peace—In a general sense, a state of quiet or tranquility; harmony; freedom from disturbance or agitation; applicable to society, to individuals, or to the temper of the mind.

Numbers 6:24-26 with word meanings:

The LORD bless you (make you happy, successful, prosperous ad bring you peace and plenty) and keep you (hold you and prevent from leaving)
The LORD make His face shine (radiate, gleam glow and illuminate) upon you, and be gracious to you (favorable, kind, benevolent, merciful and forgiving).
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you (His face, visage, appearance), and give you peace (tranquility and harmony).
