Psalms 127

1 Except YHWH build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except YHWH keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

Ako Gospod neæe graditi doma, uzalud se muèe koji ga grade; ako neæe Gospod èuvati grada, uzalud ne spava stražar.

2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

Uzalud ranite, dockan liježete, jedete hljeb umorni; milome svojemu on daje san.

3 Lo, children are an heritage of YHWH: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Evo našljedstva od Gospoda: djeca, porod je dar od njega.

4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

Što su strijele u ruci jakome, to su sinovi mladi.

5 Joyful is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Blago èovjeku koji je njima napunio tul svoj! Neæe se osramotiti kad se stanu razgovarati s neprijateljima na vratima.
