Psalm 127 - A Song of degrees for Solomon

Except the Lord build the house,
they labour in vain that build

it: except the Lord keep the city,
the watchman waketh but in vain.

It is vain for you to rise up early,
to sit up late, to eat the bread of

sorrows: giveth his beloved sleep.

Lo, children are an heritage of
the Lord: womb is his reward.

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

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.
