Psalms 127
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1A 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.
1若不是耶和華建造房屋, 建造的人就枉然勞力; 若不是耶和華看守城池, 看守的人就枉然警醒。
2It is vain for you that ye rise early, and sit up late, ye that eat the bread of toil; so He giveth unto His beloved in sleep.
2你們清晨早起,夜晚安歇, 吃勞碌得來的飯,本是枉然; 惟有耶和華所親愛的,必叫他安然睡覺。
3Lo, children are a heritage of the LORD; the fruit of the womb is a reward.
3兒女是耶和華所賜的產業; 所懷的胎是他所給的賞賜。
4As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of one's youth.
4少年時 所生 的兒女 好像勇士手中的箭。
5Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them; they shall not be put to shame, when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
5箭袋充滿的人便為有福; 他們在城門口和仇敵說話的時候, 必不至於羞愧。
