Psalms 127
A Song of degrees for Solomon.for…: or, of Solomon.
1Except Yhwh build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except Yhwh keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.1
2It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.
3Lo, children are an heritage of Yhwh: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.23
