[00:00:04] Psalm 127 A Song of Ascents of Solomon Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman keeps awake in vain. It is vain for you to rise early, to retire late, to eat the bread of anxious labors.
[00:00:33] For he gives blessings to his beloved even in his sleep. Behold, children are a heritage and gift from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth. How blessed, happy, and fortunate is the man whose quiver is filled with them.
[00:01:01] They will not be ashamed when they speak with their enemies in gatherings at the city gate. Thank you for tuning in to the The Audio Bible today. This has been Psalm 127 from the Word of God.
