Psalm 127:3

The Blessing Of The Lord

² It is vain to work hard for the food you eat by getting up early and going to bed late. Jehovah gives food to those he loves while they sleep. ³ Behold, children are a gift of the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
⁴ The children born to a man when he is young are like arrows in the hand of a warrior.
