詩篇 127

1 ソロモンがよめる京まうでのうた ヱホバ家をたてたまふにあらずば 建るものの勤労はむなしく ヱホバ城をまもりたまふにあらずば衛士のさめをるは徒労なり

Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it. Unless the Lord keep the city, he watcheth in vain that keepeth it.

2 なんぢら早くおき遅くいねて辛苦の糧をくらふはむなしきなり 斯てヱホバその愛しみたまふものに寝をあたへたまふ

It is vain for you to rise before light, rise ye after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow. When he shall give sleep to his beloved,

3 みよ子輩はヱホバのあたへたまふ嗣業にして 胎の實はその報のたまものなり

Behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb.

4 年壮きころほひの子はますらをの手にある矢のごとし

As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken.

5 矢のみちたる箙をもつ人はさいはひなり かれら門にありて仇とものいふとき恥ることあらじ

Blessed is the man that hath filled the desire with them; he shall not be confounded when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.
