3 G2400 Behold, G3588 the G2817 inheritance G2962 of the lord, G5207 O sons, G3588 the G3408 wage G3588 of the G2590 fruit G3588 of the G1064 womb.

4 G5616 As G956 arrows G1722 in G5495 the hand G1415 of the mighty, G3779 so are G3588 the G5207 sons G3588 of the G1621 ones being shaken off.

5 G3107 Blessed is G3739 the one who G4137 shall fill G3588 G1939 his desire G1473 G1537 with G1473 them; G3756 they shall not G2617 be disgraced G3752 whenever G2980 they should speak G3588 to G2190 his enemies G1473 G1722 at G4439 the gates.

Ainsi, il donne le sommeil à son bien-aimé. ³ Voici, les fils sont un héritage de l'Éternel, et le fruit du ventre est une récompense. ⁴ Comme des flèches dans la main d'un homme puissant, tels sont les fils de la jeunesse. ⁵ Bienheureux l'homme qui en a rempli son carquois! ils n'auront pas honte quand ils parleront avec des ennemis dans la porte.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Cantique de Mahaloth, de Salomon. Si l'Eternel ne bâtit la maison, ceux qui la bâtissent, y travaillent en vain; si l'Eternel ne garde la ville, celui qui la garde, fait le guet en vain. ² C'est en vain que vous vous levez de grand matin, que vous vous couchez tard, et que vous mangez le pain de douleurs; certes c'est Dieu qui donne du repos à celui qu'il aime. ³ Voici, les enfants sont un héritage donné par l'Eternel; et le fruit du ventre est une récompense de Dieu. ⁴ Telles que sont les flèches en la main d'un homme puissant, tels sont les fils d'un père qui est dans la fleur de son âge. ⁵ Ô Que bienheureux est l'homme qui en a rempli son carquois! des hommes comme ceux-là ne rougiront point de honte, quand ils parleront avec leurs ennemis à la porte.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Cantique des degrés. De Salomon. Si l'Eternel ne bâtit la maison, Ceux qui la bâtissent travaillent en vain; Si l'Eternel ne garde la ville, Celui qui la garde veille en vain. ² En vain vous levez-vous matin, vous couchez-vous tard, Et mangez-vous le pain de douleur; Il en donne autant à ses bien-aimés pendant leur sommeil. ³ Voici, des fils sont un héritage de l'Eternel, Le fruit des entrailles est une récompense. ⁴ Comme les flèches dans la main d'un guerrier, Ainsi sont les fils de la jeunesse. ⁵ Heureux l'homme qui en a rempli son carquois! Ils ne seront pas confus, Quand ils parleront avec des ennemis à la porte.

Esperanto⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Kanto de suprenirado. De Salomono. Se la Eternulo ne konstruas la domon, Tiam vane laboras super gxi gxiaj konstruantoj; Se la Eternulo ne gardas urbon, Tiam vane maldormas la gardanto. ² Vane vi frue levigxas, malfrue sidas, Mangxas panon kun klopodoj: Al Sia amato Li donas en dormo. ³ Jen, heredo de la Eternulo estas infanoj; Rekompenco estas la frukto de ventro. ⁴ Kiel sagoj en la mano de fortulo, Tiel estas junaj filoj. ⁵ Bone estas al la homo, kiu plenigis per ili sian sagujon; Ili ne estos hontigitaj, Kiam ili parolos kun la malamikoj cxe la pordego.

Finnish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Salomon veisu korkeimmassa Kuorissa. Jos ei Herra huonetta rakenna, niin hukkaan työtä tekevät, jotka sitä rakentavat: jos ei Herra kaupunkia varjele, niin vartiat hukkaan valvovat. ² Se on turha, että te varhain nousette ja hiljain maata menette, ja syötte leipänne surulla; sillä hän antaa ystävillensä heidän maatessansa. ³ Katso, lapset ovat Herran lahja, ja kohdun hedelmä on anto. ⁴ Kuin nuolet väkevän kädessä, niin ovat nuorukaiset. ⁵ Autuas on se, jonka viini on niitä täynnänsä: ei ne häväistä, kuin heillä vihollistensa kanssa portissa tekemistä on.

FinnishPR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Matkalaulu; Salomon virsi. Jos Herra ei huonetta rakenna, niin sen rakentajat turhaan vaivaa näkevät. Jos Herra ei kaupunkia varjele, niin turhaan vartija valvoo. ² Turhaan te nousette varhain ja myöhään menette levolle ja syötte leipänne murheella: yhtä hyvin hän antaa ystävilleen heidän nukkuessansa. ³ Katso, lapset ovat Herran lahja, ja kohdun hedelmä on anti. ⁴ Niinkuin nuolet sankarin kädessä, niin ovat nuoruudessa synnytetyt pojat. ⁵ Onnellinen se mies, jonka viini on niitä täynnä! Eivät he joudu häpeään, kun portissa puhuttelevat vihamiehiänsä.

Haitian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Se yon chante Salomon pou yo chante lè y'ap moute lavil Jerizalèm. Si se pa Seyè a ki bati kay la, travay moun k'ap bati yo pa vo anyen. Si se pa Seyè a k'ap pwoteje lavil la, travay moun k'ap veye yo pa vo anyen. ² Sa pa vo lapenn pou nou leve granmaten, pou nou kouche ta, pou nou travay di pou n' ka manje, paske, lè Bondye renmen yon moun, li ba li tout bagay pandan l'ap dòmi. ³ Pitit se kado Bondye bay, se yon rekonpans pou manman ak papa. ⁴ Menm jan yon sòlda santi li gen kouraj lè l' gen zam li nan men l', se menm jan an tou pou yon moun ki fè pitit gason depi lè l' te jenn. ⁵ Ala bon sa bon pou moun ki gen anpil zam konsa! Li p'ap janm wont lè li kanpe nan pòtay lavil la pou l' diskite ak moun k'ap chache l' kont.

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Grádicsok éneke Salamontól. Ha az Úr nem építi a házat, hiába dolgoznak azon annak építõi.

Szerelmesének álmában ád eleget. ³ Ímé, az Úrnak öröksége, a fiak; az anyaméh gyümölcse: jutalom. ⁴ Mint a nyilak a hõsnek kezében, olyanok a serdülõ fiak. ⁵ Boldog ember, a ki ilyenekkel tölti meg tegzét; nem szégyenülnek meg, ha ellenséggel szólnak a kapuban.

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Nyanyian Salomo. Kalau bukan TUHAN yang membangun rumah, sia-sialah tukang-tukangnya bekerja. Kalau bukan TUHAN yang melindungi kota, sia-sialah para pengawal berjaga. ² Percuma saja bekerja keras mencari nafkah, bangun pagi-pagi dan tidur larut malam; sebab TUHAN menyediakannya bagi mereka yang dikasihi-Nya, sementara mereka sedang tidur. ³ Anak-anak adalah pemberian Allah, sesungguhnya, mereka itu anugerah. ⁴ Anak-anak lelaki yang diperoleh di masa muda seperti anak panah di tangan ksatria. ⁵ Berbahagialah orang yang mempunyai persediaan panah-panah yang demikian! Ia tidak akan dikalahkan, waktu menghadapi musuh di pengadilan.

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Cantico di Maalot, di Salomone. SE il Signore non edifica la casa, In vano vi si affaticano gli edificatori; Se il Signore non guarda la città, In vano vegghiano le guardie. ² Voi che vi levate la mattina a buon’ora, e tardi vi posate, E mangiate il pane di doglie, in vano il fate; In luogo di ciò, Iddio dà il sonno a colui ch’egli ama. ³ Ecco, i figliuoli sono una eredità del Signore; Il frutto del ventre è un premio. ⁴ Quali son le saette in mano d’un valent’uomo, Tali sono i figliuoli in giovanezza. ⁵ Beato l’uomo che ne ha il suo turcasso pieno; Tali non saranno confusi, Quando parleranno co’ lor nemici nella porta.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Canto dei pellegrinaggi. Di Salomone. Se l’Eterno non edifica la casa, invano vi si affaticano gli edificatori; se l’Eterno non guarda la città, invano vegliano le guardie. ² Invano vi levate di buon’ora e tardi andate a riposare e mangiate il pan di doglie; egli dà altrettanto ai suoi diletti, mentr’essi dormono. ³ Ecco, i figliuoli sono un’eredità che viene dall’Eterno; il frutto del seno materno è un premio. ⁴ Quali le frecce in man d’un prode, tali sono i figliuoli della giovinezza. ⁵ Beati coloro che ne hanno il turcasso pieno!

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Se o Senhor não edificar a casa, em vão trabalham os que a edificam; se o Senhor não guardar a cidade, em vão vigia a sentinela. ² Inútil vos será levantar de madrugada, repousar tarde, comer o pão de dores, pois ele supre aos seus amados enquanto dormem. ³ Eis que os filhos são herança da parte do Senhor, e o fruto do ventre o seu galardão. ⁴ Como flechas na mão dum homem valente, assim os filhos da mocidade. ⁵ Bem-aventurado o homem que enche deles a sua aljava; não serão confundidos, quando falarem com os seus inimigos à porta.

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ En sang ved festreisene; av Salomo. Dersom Herren ikke bygger huset, arbeider de forgjeves som bygger på det; dersom Herren ikke vokter byen, våker vekteren forgjeves. ² Det er forgjeves at I står tidlig op, setter eder sent ned, eter møisommelighets brød; det samme gir han sin venn i søvne. ³ Se, barn er Herrens gave, livsfrukt er en lønn. ⁴ Som piler i den veldige kjempes hånd, således er ungdoms sønner. ⁵ Lykksalig er den mann som har sitt kogger fullt av dem; de blir ikke til skamme når de taler med fiender i porten.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ (O cîntare a treptelor. Un psalm al lui Solomon.) Dacă nu zideşte Domnul o casă, degeaba lucrează cei ce o zidesc; dacă nu păzeşte Domnul o cetate, degeaba veghează cel ce o păzeşte. ² Degeaba vă sculaţi de dimineaţă şi vă culcaţi tîrziu, ca să mîncaţi o pîne cîştigată cu durere; căci prea iubiţilor Lui El le dă pîne ca în somn. ³ Iată, fiii sînt o moştenire dela Domnul, rodul pîntecelui este o răsplată dată de El. ⁴ Ca săgeţile în mîna unui războinic, aşa sînt fiii făcuţi la tinereţă. ⁵ Ferice de omul care îşi umple tolba de săgeţi cu ei! Căci ei nu vor rămînea de ruşine, cînd vor vorbi cu vrăjmaşii lor la poartă.
