Unless
the Lord Builds the House.
1
Unless the LORD builds the house,
those who build it labor in vain.
Unless
the LORD watches over the city,
the watchman stays awake in vain.
2
It is in vain that you rise up early
and go late to rest,
eating the bread of
anxious toil;
for he gives to his beloved sleep.
3
Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,
the fruit of the womb a reward.
4
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the children of one's youth.
5
Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them!
He
shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies in
the gate (Psa. 127:1-5).
