Salmi 127

NOVA VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Canticum ascensionum. Salomonis. Nisi Dominus aedificaverit domum, in vanum laborant, qui aedificant eam. Nisi Dominus custodierit civitatem, frustra vigilat, qui custodit eam.	1 A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.
2 Vanum est vobis ante lucem surgere et sero quiescere, qui manducatis panem laboris, quia dabit dilectis suis somnum.	2 For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you.
3 Ecce hereditas Domini filii, merces fructus ventris.	3 Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table.
4 Sicut sagittae in manu potentis, ita filii iuventutis.	4 Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord.
5 Beatus vir, qui implevit pharetram suam ex ipsis: non confundetur, cum loquetur inimicis suis in porta.	5 May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life.
	6 And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.
