Psalms ā Chapter 127
Children are a heritage from the Lord.
1
Except the Lord build the house, they alabour in vain that build it: except the Lordbkeep 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 beloved asleep.
4
As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5
aHappy 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.
