< Dagiti Salmo 127 >
1 Malaksid no ni Yahweh ti mangipatakder iti balay, awan serserbi ti panagtrabaho dagiti agipatpatakder. Malaksid no bantayan ni Yahweh ti siudad, awan serserbi ti agbanbantay.
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.
2 Awan serserbina kenka ti bumangon a masapa, ti naladaw a panagawid, wenno ti pannangan iti tinapay a nagbannogan, gapu ta it-ited ni Yahweh ti pannaturog kadagiti ay-ayatenna.
Vain for you who are rising early, Who delay sitting, eating the bread of griefs, So He gives sleep to His beloved one.
3 Kitaem, dagiti ubbing ket tawid a naggapu kenni Yahweh, ken ti bunga ti aanakan ket gunggona manipud kenkuana.
Behold, sons [are] an inheritance of YHWH, The fruit of the womb [is] a reward.
4 Dagiti annak ti agkabanuag a lalaki ket kasla kadagiti pana iti ima iti mannakigubat.
As arrows in the hand of a mighty one, So [are] the sons of the young men.
5 Anian a naggasat ti tao a napno ti pagkargaan ti panana. Saan a maibabain isuna inton sangoenna dagiti kabusorna iti ruangan.
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!
