Psalms 127
|
Prosperity Comes from the LORD.
1 Unless the LORD (C1)builds a house,
They who build it labor in vain;
Unless the LORD (C2)guards a city,
The watchman stays awake in vain.
2 It is futile for you to rise up early,
To (F1)stay up late,
To (C1)eat the bread of painful labor;
This is how He gives to His (C2)beloved (C3)sleep.
3 Behold, (C1)children are a (F1)gift of the LORD,
The (C2)fruit of the womb is a reward.
4 Like arrows in the hand of a (C1)warrior,
So are the children of one's youth.
5 (C1)Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them;
(C2)They will not be ashamed
When they (C3)speak with their enemies (C4)in the gate.
