თავი 127

1. 1
   Unless the LORD builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain.
2. 2
   It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil, for he gives sleep to his loved ones.
3. 3
   Behold, children are a heritage of the LORD. The fruit of the womb is his reward.
4. 4
   As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of youth.
5. 5
   Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They won’t be disappointed when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
