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 Ascents; of Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

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 vain for you that ye rise up early, and so late take rest, and eat the bread of toil: [for] so he giveth unto his beloved sleep.

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

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb is [his] reward.

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

As arrows in the hand of a mighty 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

Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
