Psalm 127 | New International Reader’s Version

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. A psalm of Solomon.

1 If the LORD doesn’t build a house, the work of the builders is useless. If the LORD doesn’t watch over a city, it’s useless for those on guard duty to stand watch over it.

2 It’s useless for you to work from early morning until late at night just to get food to eat. God provides for those he loves even while they sleep.

3 Children are a gift from the LORD. They are a reward from him.

4 Children who are born to people when they are young are like arrows in the hands of a soldier.

5 Blessed are those who have many children. They won’t be put to shame when they go up against their enemies in court.

127. Mezmur

Süleyman'ın hac ilahisi

1 Evi RAB yapmazsa, Yapıcılar boşuna didinir. Kenti RAB korumazsa, Bekçi boşuna bekler.

2 Boşuna erken kalkıp Geç yatıyorsunuz. Ey zahmetle kazanılan ekmeği yiyenler, RAB sevdiklerinin rahat uyumasını sağlar.

3 Çocuklar RAB'bin verdiği bir armağandır, Rahmin ürünü bir ödüldür.

4 Yiğidin elinde nasılsa oklar, Öyledir gençlikte doğan çocuklar.

5 Ne mutlu ok kılıfı onlarla dolu insana! Kent kapısında* hasımlarıyla tartışırken Utanç duymayacaklar.
