Psalm 127:2

The Blessing Of The Lord

¹ A Solomonic song of ascents.Unless the Lord builds a house,
its builders labor over it in vain;
unless the Lord watches over a city,
the watchman stays alert in vain.
² In vain you get up early and stay up late,
working hard to have enough food—
yes, He gives sleep to the one He loves. ³ Sons are indeed a heritage from the Lord,
children, a reward.
