PSALM 127 REFRAIN Unless the LORD builds the house, their labor is in vain who build it. Unless the LORD watches over the city, in vain the sentries keep vigil. It is in vain that you rise so early and go to bed so late; vain, too, to eat the bread of toil, for to the beloved the LORD gives sleep. REFRAIN Children are a heritage from the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is a gift. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one s youth. Happy are the warriors with a quiver full of them! they shall not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
