DRT ~ Ps 126

The Book of Psalms | Ps. 126

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. 1 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, 2 behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb. 3 As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken. 4 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.
