Chapter 127
Psal Noyes 127:1  Except the LORD build the house, The builders labor in vain; Except the LORD guard the city, The watchman waketh in vain.
Psal Noyes 127:2  In vain ye rise up early, and go to rest late, And eat the bread of care! The same giveth he his beloved one in sleep.
Psal Noyes 127:3  Behold! sons are an inheritance from the LORD, And the fruit of the womb is his gift.
Psal Noyes 127:4  As arrows in the hand of the warrior, So are the sons of young men:
Psal Noyes 127:5  Happy the man that hath his quiver full of them! They shall not be put to shame, When they speak with adversaries in the gate.
