< Psalms 127 >

1 Unless Jehovah builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless Jehovah guards the city, the watchman wake but in vain.
Malaksid no ni Yahweh ti mangipatakder iti balay, awan serserbi ti panagtrabaho dagiti agipatpatakder. Malaksid no bantayan ni Yahweh ti siudad, awan serserbi ti agbanbantay.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of toil, for so he gives sleep to his beloved.
Awan serserbina kenka ti bumangon a masapa, ti naladaw a panagawid, wenno ti pannangan iti tinapay a nagbannogan, gapu ta it-ited ni Yahweh ti pannaturog kadagiti ay-ayatenna.
3 Lo, sons are a heritage of Jehovah, and the fruit of the womb is a reward.
Kitaem, dagiti ubbing ket tawid a naggapu kenni Yahweh, ken ti bunga ti aanakan ket gunggona manipud kenkuana.
4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the sons of youth.
Dagiti annak ti agkabanuag a lalaki ket kasla kadagiti pana iti ima iti mannakigubat.
5 Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They shall not be put to shame when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
Anian a naggasat ti tao a napno ti pagkargaan ti panana. Saan a maibabain isuna inton sangoenna dagiti kabusorna iti ruangan.
