Parallel
Psalms 127
Louis Segond 1910 · Berean Standard Bible
Cantique des degrés. De Salomon.
A song of ascents. Of Solomon. Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain; unless the LORD protects the city, its watchmen stand guard in vain.
En vain vous levez-vous matin, vous couchez-vous tard,
In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for bread to eat—for He gives sleep to His beloved.
Voici, des fils sont un héritage de l’Éternel,
Children are indeed a heritage from the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is His reward.
Comme les flèches dans la main d’un guerrier,
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are children born in one’s youth.
Heureux l’homme qui en a rempli son carquois!
Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. He will not be put to shame when he confronts the enemies at the gate.
