Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it. Except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
2
It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; for so He giveth His beloved sleep.
3
Lo, children are a heritage of the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is His reward.
4
As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of the youth.
5
Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them; they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies at the gate.
