NASB2020 ▾Psalm ▾127 ▾Psalm 1271Unless the L ord builds a house, They who build it labor in vain; Unless the L ord guards a city, The watchman stays awake in vain.2It is futile for you to rise up early, To stay up late, To eat the bread of painful labor; This is how He gives to His beloved sleep.3¶Behold, children are a gift of the L ord , The fruit of the womb is a reward.4Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one’s youth.5Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them; They will not be ashamed When they speak with their enemies in the gate.Psalm 126Psalm 128
