127:1 A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon. Unless Yahweh builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; Unless Yahweh watches the city, The watchman keeps awake in vain.
127:2 It is in vain that you rise up early, That you sit out late, O you who eat the bread of painful labors; For in this manner, He gives sleep to His beloved.
127:3 Behold, children are an inheritance of Yahweh, The fruit of the womb is a reward.
127:4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one’s youth.
127:5 How blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them; They will not be ashamed When they speak with enemies in the gate.
