Unless the LORD Builds the House
|
|
|
|
# Chapter 127
|
|
1. Unless the LORD builds the house,
|
|
those who build it labor in vain.
|
|
Unless the LORD watches over the city,
|
|
the watchman stays awake in vain.
|
|
|
|
2. It is in vain that you rise up early
|
|
and go late to rest,
|
|
eating the bread of anxious toil;
|
|
for he gives to his beloved sleep.
|
|
|
|
3. Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,
|
|
the fruit of the womb a reward.
|
|
|
|
4. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
|
|
are the children of one's youth.
|
|
|
|
5. Blessed is the man
|
|
who fills his quiver with them!
|
|
He shall not be put to shame
|
|
when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
