Read Psalm 127 of the BSB to discover the profound insights it holds for us on this blessed day. For more verses, check out the Book of Psalms.
Children Are a Heritage from the LORD
A song of ascents. Of Solomon.
1. Unless the LORD builds the house,
its builders labor in vain;
unless the LORD protects the city,
its watchmen stand guard in vain.
2. In vain you rise early
and stay up late,
toiling for bread to eat—
for He gives sleep to His beloved.
3. Children are indeed a heritage from the LORD,
and the fruit of the womb is His reward.
4. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
so are children born in one’s youth.
5. Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
He will not be put to shame
when he confronts the enemies at the gate.
