Psalms 127

Psalm 127
A Song of degrees for Solomon.
1¶ Unless the Lord builds the house, they labour in vain that build it; unless the Lord keeps the city, the watchmen watch in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to come home late, to eat the bread of sorrows, because he shall give his beloved sleep.
3Behold, sons are a heritage of the Lord, and the fruit of the womb is to be desired.
4As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the young men.
5Happy is the man that has filled his quiver with them: he shall not be ashamed when he speaks with the enemies in the gate.
