127:1
ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν τῷ Σαλωμων ἐὰν μὴ κύριος οἰκοδομήσῃ οἶκον εἰς μάτην ἐκοπίασαν οἱ οἰκοδομοῦντες αὐτόν ἐὰν μὴ κύριος φυλάξῃ πόλιν εἰς μάτην ἠγρύπνησεν ὁ φυλάσσων
Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain.
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。
127:2
εἰς μάτην ὑμῖν ἐστιν τοῦ ὀρθρίζειν ἐγείρεσθαι μετὰ τὸ καθῆσθαι οἱ ἔσθοντες ἄρτον ὀδύνης ὅταν δῷ τοῖς ἀγαπητοῖς αὐτοῦ ὕπνον
It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil, for he gives sleep to his loved ones.
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。
127:3
ἰδοὺ ἡ κληρονομία κυρίου υἱοί ὁ μισθὸς τοῦ καρποῦ τῆς γαστρός
Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward.
兒女是耶和華所賜的產業； 所懷的胎是他所給的賞賜。
127:4
ὡσεὶ βέλη ἐν χειρὶ δυνατοῦ οὕτως οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἐκτετιναγμένων
As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of youth.
少年時所生的兒女 好像勇士手中的箭。
127:5
μακάριος ἄνθρωπος ὃς πληρώσει τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν αὐτοῦ ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐ καταισχυνθήσονται ὅταν λαλῶσι τοῖς ἐχθροῖς αὐτῶν ἐν πύλῃ
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They won’t be disappointed when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
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。
