King James Bible |
Youngs Literal Translation |
|
| 127:1 | Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain |
A Song of the Ascents, by Solomon. If Jehovah doth not build the house, In vain have its builders laboured at it, If Jehovah doth not watch a city, In vain hath a watchman waked. |
| 127:2 | It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep. | Vain for you who are rising early, Who delay sitting, eating the bread of griefs, So He giveth to His beloved one sleep. |
| 127:3 | Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. | Lo, an inheritance of Jehovah `are' sons, A reward `is' the fruit of the womb. |
| 127:4 | As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. | As arrows in the hand of a mighty one, So `are' the sons of the young men. |
| 127:5 | Happy is the man that |
O the happiness of the man Who hath filled his quiver with them, They are not ashamed, For they speak with enemies in the gate! |
