Psal Webster 127:2  [It is] vain for you to rise early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: [for] so he giveth his beloved sleep.
Psal Webster 127:3  Lo, children [are] a heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward.
Psal Webster 127:4  As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man: so [are] children of the youth.
Psal Webster 127:5  Happy [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.
