- 〔所羅門上行之詩。〕若不是耶和華建造房屋、建造的人就枉然勞力.若不是耶和華看守城池、看守的人就枉然儆醒。
- 你們清晨早起、夜晚安歇、喫勞碌得來的飯、本是枉然.惟有耶和華所親愛的、必叫他安然睡覺。
- 兒女是耶和華所賜的產業.所懷的胎、是他所給的賞賜。
- 少年時所生的兒女、好像勇士手中的箭。
- 箭袋充滿的人、便為有福.他們在城門口、和仇敵說話的時候、必不至於羞愧。

- Unless the LORD builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; Unless the LORD guards the city, The watchman keeps awake in vain.
- It is vain for you to rise up early, To retire late, To eat the bread of painful labors; For He gives to His beloved even in his sleep.
- Behold, children are a gift of the LORD, The fruit of the womb is a reward.
- Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one's youth.
- How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them; They will not be ashamed When they speak with their enemies in the gate.
