Psalm 127
King James Version
A Song of degrees for Solomon.
1Except the LordH3068 buildH1129 the houseH1004, they labourH5998 in vainH7723 that buildH1129 it: except the LordH3068 keepH8104 the cityH5892, the watchmanH8104 wakethH8245 but in vainH7723.12
2It is vainH7723 for you to rise upH6965 earlyH7925, to sit upH3427 lateH309, to eatH398 the breadH3899 of sorrowsH6089: for so he givethH5414 his belovedH3039 sleepH8142.
3Lo, childrenH1121 are an heritageH5159 of the LordH3068: and the fruitH6529 of the wombH990 is his rewardH7939.
4As arrowsH2671 are in the handH3027 of a mighty manH1368; so are childrenH1121 of the youthH5271.
5HappyH835 is the manH1397 that hath his quiverH827 fullH4390 of them: they shall not be ashamedH954, but they shall speakH1696 with the enemiesH341 in the gateH8179.34
