诗篇

第 127 章

1. （所罗门上行之诗。）若不是耶和华建造房屋，建造的人就枉然劳力。若不是耶和华看守城池，看守的人就枉然儆醒。
A song of ascents. Of Solomon. Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain.
2. 你们清晨早起，夜晚安歇，吃劳碌得来的饭，本是枉然。惟有耶和华所亲爱的，必叫他安然睡觉。
In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat--for he grants sleep to those he loves.
3. 儿女是耶和华所赐的产业。所怀的胎是他所给的赏赐。
Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him.
4. 少年时所生的儿女，好像勇士手中的箭。
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth.
5. 箭袋充满的人便为有福。他们在城门口和仇敌说话的时候，必不至于羞愧。
Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
