Salmos 127
Dios Habla Hoy
Todo viene del Señor
(1a) Cántico de las subidas, de Salomón.
127 (1b) Si el Señor no construye la casa,
de nada sirve que trabajen los constructores;
si el Señor no protege la ciudad,
de nada sirve que vigilen los centinelas.
2 De nada sirve trabajar de sol a sol
y comer un pan ganado con dolor,
cuando Dios lo da a sus amigos mientras duermen.
3 Los hijos que nos nacen
son ricas bendiciones del Señor.
4 Los hijos que nos nacen en la juventud
son como flechas en manos de un guerrero.
5 ¡Feliz el hombre que tiene muchas flechas como ésas!
No será avergonzado por sus enemigos
cuando se defienda de ellos ante los jueces.
Psalm 127
King James Version
127 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.
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.
3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
Psalm 127
English Standard Version
Unless the Lord Builds the House
A Song of (A)Ascents. Of Solomon.
127 Unless the Lord builds the house,
those who build it labor in vain.
Unless the Lord (B)watches over the city,
the watchman stays awake in vain.
2 It is in vain that you rise up early
and go late to rest,
eating the bread of anxious (C)toil;
for he gives to his (D)beloved (E)sleep.
3 Behold, (F)children are a heritage from the Lord,
(G)the fruit of the womb a reward.
4 Like arrows in the hand of (H)a warrior
are the children[a] of one's youth.
5 Blessed is the man
who fills his quiver with them!
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies (I)in the gate.[b]
