< Psalms 127 >
1 A song of ascents, of Solomon. Unless Yahweh builds the house, they work uselessly, those who build it. Unless Yahweh guards the city, the watchman stands guard uselessly.
[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.
2 It is useless for you to rise up early, to come home late, or to eat the bread of hard work, for Yahweh provides for his beloved as they sleep.
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.
3 See, children are a heritage from Yahweh, and the fruit of the womb is a reward from him.
Here! [the] inheritance of Yahweh [is] sons [is] a reward [the] fruit of the womb.
4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth.
Like arrows in [the] hand of a warrior so [are] [the] sons of youth.
5 How blessed is the man that has his quiver full of them. He will not be put to shame when he confronts his enemies in the gate.
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.
