تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ. لِسُلَيْمَانَ إِنْ لَمْ يَبْنِ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْبَيْتَ، فَبَاطِلًا يَتْعَبُ ٱلْبَنَّاؤُونَ. إِنْ لَمْ يَحْفَظِ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، فَبَاطِلًا يَسْهَرُ ٱلْحَارِسُ. ١ 1
A Song of degrees for Solomon. Except the LORD shall build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD shall keep the city, the watchman waketh in vain.
بَاطِلٌ هُوَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تُبَكِّرُوا إِلَى ٱلْقِيَامِ، مُؤَخِّرِينَ ٱلْجُلُوسَ، آكِلِينَ خُبْزَ ٱلْأَتْعَابِ. لَكِنَّهُ يُعْطِي حَبِيبَهُ نَوْمًا. ٢ 2
[It is] vain for you to rise early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: [for] so he giveth his beloved sleep.
هُوَذَا ٱلْبَنُونَ مِيرَاثٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، ثَمَرَةُ ٱلْبَطْنِ أُجْرَةٌ. ٣ 3
Lo, children [are] a heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward.
كَسِهَامٍ بِيَدِ جَبَّارٍ، هَكَذَا أَبْنَاءُ ٱلشَّبِيبَةِ. ٤ 4
As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man: so [are] children of the youth.
طُوبَى لِلَّذِي مَلَأَ جَعْبَتَهُ مِنْهُمْ. لَا يَخْزَوْنَ بَلْ يُكَلِّمُونَ ٱلْأَعْدَاءَ فِي ٱلْبَابِ. ٥ 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.
