< Psalms 127 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY SOLOMON. If YHWH does not build the house, Its builders have labored at it in vain, If YHWH does not watch a city, A watchman has awoken in vain.
Solomon kah Tangtlaeng Laa BOEIPA loh im a sak pawt atah a soah aka sa rhoek khaw a poeyoek lam ni a thakthae uh. BOEIPA loh khopuei a hung pawt atah aka hung khaw a poeyoek lam ni a hak.
2 Vain for you who are rising early, Who delay sitting, eating the bread of griefs, So He gives sleep to His beloved one.
A thoh neh hlah uh tih kholaeh daengla aka duem, patangnah buh aka ca nang ham a poeyoek mai ni. Ih pataeng a lungnah taengah ni a paek.
3 Behold, sons [are] an inheritance of YHWH, The fruit of the womb [is] a reward.
C a rhoek he BOEIPA rho neh bungko thaihtae kah thapang ni ne.
4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty one, So [are] the sons of the young men.
Camoe ca rhoek khaw hlangrhalh kut dongkah thaltang bangla om tangloeng.
5 O the blessedness of the man Who has filled his quiver with them, They are not ashamed, For they speak with enemies in the gate!
Te rhoek neh a liva aka bae sak hlang te tah a yoethen. Vongka kah thunkha neh a oelh uh rhoi vaengah yahpok uh mahpawh.
