Psalms

Chapter 126

  1. 1

    Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it. Unless the Lord keep the city, he watcheth in vain that keepeth it.

  2. 2

    It is vain for you to rise before light, rise ye after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow. When he shall give sleep to his beloved,

  3. 3

    Behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb.

  4. 4

    As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken.

  5. 5

    Blessed is the man that hath filled the desire with them; he shall not be confounded when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.
