127:1 Except
Jehovah
build
the
house,
They
labor
in
vain
that
build
it:
Except
Jehovah
keep
the
city,
The
watchman
waketh
but
in
vain.
127:2 It
is
vain
for
you
to
rise
up
early,
To
take
rest
late,
To
eat
the
bread
of
toil;
[For]
so
he
giveth
unto
his
beloved
sleep.
127:3 Lo,
children
are
a
heritage
of
Jehovah;
[And]
the
fruit
of
the
womb
is
[his]
reward.
127:4 As
arrows
in
the
hand
of
a
mighty
man,
So
are
the
children
of
youth.
127:5 Happy
is
the
man
that
hath
his
quiver
full
of
them:
They
shall
not
be
put
to
shame,
When
they
speak
with
their
enemies
in
the
gate.
