< 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.
ソロモンがよめる京まうでのうた ヱホバ家をたてたまふにあらずば 建るものの勤労はむなしく ヱホバ城をまもりたまふにあらずば衛士のさめをるは徒労なり
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.
なんぢら早くおき遅くいねて辛苦の糧をくらふはむなしきなり 斯てヱホバその愛しみたまふものに寝をあたへたまふ
3 Lo, children are an heritage of Yhwh: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
みよ子輩はヱホバのあたへたまふ嗣業にして 胎の實はその報のたまものなり
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
年壮きころほひの子はますらをの手にある矢のごとし
5 Happy 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.
矢のみちたる箙をもつ人はさいはひなり かれら門にありて仇とものいふとき恥ることあらじ
