Psalm 127:2

The Blessing Of The Lord

¹ A Song of Ascents, of Solomon.
Unless the Lord builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the Lord guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.
² It is vain for you to rise up early,
To retire late,
To eat the bread of painful labors;
For He gives to His beloved even in his sleep.
³ Behold, children are a gift of the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
