A Song of degrees for Solomon.
1 Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain that build it; unless the LORD protects the city, the vigilance of their sentries is to no avail. 2 It is useless to rise early, or labor late into the night for meager food; for He provides sleep for His beloved. 3 Children are a heritage from the LORD; and offspring are a reward from Him. 4 Like arrows in the hand of an archer; so are the children of one's youth. 5 Blessed is the man who has his quiver full of them; he shall not be rebuffed when he confronts his enemies in the gate. — Psalm 127 | Reader-Friendly Bible: Purple Letter Edition (RFBPLE) Reader-Friendly Bible: Purple Letter Edition © 2024 by Jim Musser.
