canticum graduum Salomonis nisi Dominus aedificaverit domum in vanum laboraverunt qui aedificant eam nisi Dominus custodierit civitatem frustra vigilat qui custodit eam
canticum graduum Salomonis nisi Dominus aedificaverit domum in vanum laboraverunt qui aedificant eam nisi Dominus custodierit civitatem frustra vigilavit qui custodit
A gradual canticle of Solomon. Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it. Unless the Lord keep the city, he watcheth in vain that keepeth it.

frustra vobis est de mane consurgere postquam sederitis qui manducatis panem idolorum sic dabit diligentibus se somnum
vanum est vobis ante lucem surgere surgere postquam sederitis qui manducatis panem doloris cum dederit dilectis suis somnum
It is vain for you to rise before light, rise ye after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow. When he shall give sleep to his beloved,

ecce hereditas Domini filii mercis fructus ventris
ecce hereditas Domini filii mercis fructus ventris
Behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb.

sicut sagittae in manu potentis ita filii iuventutis
sicut sagittae in manu potentis ita filii excussorum
As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken.

beatus vir qui implevit faretram suam ex ipsis non confundentur cum loquentur inimicis in porta
beatus vir qui implebit desiderium suum ex ipsis non confundentur cum loquentur inimicis suis in porta
Blessed is the man that hath filled the desire with them; he shall not be confounded when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.
