The Book of Psalms

Chapter 127

1: Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except theLORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

2: It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his belovedsleep.

3: Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

4: As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

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.
Psalms 128
