< Psalms 127 >
1 [the] song of The ascents of Solomon if Yahweh - not he will build a house vanity - they have toiled builders its in it if Yahweh not he will watch over a city vanity - he has kept awake [the] watchman.
若不是上主興工建屋,建築的人是徒然勞苦;若不是上主護守城堡,守城的人白白驚醒護守。
2 Vanity [belongs] to you - [who] rise early to rise [who] delay to sit [who] eat [the] bread of labors thus he gives to beloved [one] his sleep.
您們很早起床盡屬徒然,每夜坐到深更圖謀打算,為了求食經過多少辛酸;唯獨天主賜所愛者安眠。
3 Here! [the] inheritance of Yahweh [is] sons [is] a reward [the] fruit of the womb.
的確子女全是上主的賜予,胎兒也全是他的報酬。
4 Like arrows in [the] hand of a warrior so [are] [the] sons of youth.
年青少壯所生的子嗣,有如勇士手中的箭矢。
5 How blessed! [is] the man who he has filled quiver his from them not they will be ashamed if they will speak with enemies in the gate.
裝滿自己箭囊的人,真有福氣,城門前爭辯,不受羞恥。
