¹ Unless the Lord ^(a)builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the Lord ^(b)guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.
² It is vain for you to rise up early,
To ^[a]retire late,
To ^(c)eat the bread of ^[b]painful labors;
For He gives to His ^(d)beloved ^(e)even in his sleep.

³ Behold, ^(f)children are a ^[c]gift of the Lord,
The ^(g)fruit of the womb is a reward.
⁴ Like arrows in the hand of a ^(h)warrior,
So are the children of one's youth.
⁵ How ⁽ⁱ⁾blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them;
^(j)They will not be ashamed
When they ^(k)speak with their enemies ^(l)in the gate.
