| [A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon.] | |||
| Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. | Prayer against Israel's Enemies. Psalm 127(v126) | ||
| It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. | |||
| Lo, sons are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. | |||
| Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the sons of one's youth. | |||
| Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate. | |||
