English.png English text


1  Except the Lord build the house : their labour is but lost that build it.

2  Except the Lord keep the city : the watchman waketh but in vain.

3  It is but lost labour that ye haste to rise up early, and so late take rest, and eat the bread of carefulness : for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

4  Lo, children and the fruit of the womb : are an heritage and gift that cometh of the Lord.

5  Like as the arrows in the hand of the giant : even so are the young children.

6  Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them : they shall not be ashamed when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
