Psalms 127

1 song [the] step to/for Solomon if: until LORD not to build house: home vanity: vain to toil to build him in/on/with him if: until LORD not to keep: guard city vanity: vain to watch to keep: guard

A song of degrees, or Psalme of Salomon. Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vaine that build it: except the Lord keepe the citie, the keeper watcheth in vaine.

2 vanity: vain to/for you to rise to arise: rise to delay to dwell to eat food: bread [the] toil so to give: give to/for beloved his sleep

It is in vaine for you to rise earely, and to lie downe late, and eate the bread of sorow: but he wil surely giue rest to his beloued.

3 behold inheritance LORD son: child wages fruit [the] belly: womb

Beholde, children are the inheritance of the Lord, and the fruite of the wombe his rewarde.

4 like/as arrow in/on/with hand mighty man so son: child [the] youth

As are the arrowes in the hand of ye strong man: so are the children of youth.

5 blessed [the] great man which to fill [obj] quiver his from them not be ashamed for to speak: speak with enemy in/on/with gate

Blessed is the man, that hath his quiuer full of them: for they shall not be ashamed, when they speake with their enemies in the gate.
