Chapter 127
Psal GodsWord 127:1  If the LORD does not build the house, it is useless for the builders to work on it. If the LORD does not protect a city, it is useless for the guard to stay alert.
Psal GodsWord 127:2  It is useless to work hard for the food you eat by getting up early and going to bed late. The LORD gives food to those he loves while they sleep.
Psal GodsWord 127:3  Children are an inheritance from the LORD. They are a reward from him.
Psal GodsWord 127:4  The children born to a man when he is young are like arrows in the hand of a warrior.
Psal GodsWord 127:5  Blessed is the man who has filled his quiver with them. He will not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the city gate.
