Psalm 127:2-4

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

² It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of [anxious] toil—for He gives [blessings] to His beloved in sleep.

³ Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.^(A)

⁴ As arrows are in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one’s youth.
