Psalms 127
Psalm 127
A song of ascents, by Solomon.
1 If the Lord does not build a house,
then those who build it work in vain.
If the Lord does not guard a city,
then the watchman stands guard in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise early, come home late,
and work so hard for your food.
Yes, he can provide for those whom he loves even when they sleep.
3 Yes, sons are a gift from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb is a reward.
4 Sons born during one's youth
are like arrows in a warrior's hand.
5 How blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them!
They will not be put to shame when they confront enemies at the city gate.
