A song of ascents. Of Solomon.
“Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain; unless the LORD protects the city, its watchmen stand guard in vain.”
Psalm 127:1 (BSB)
Context Reading
1Of Solomon. Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain; unless the LORD protects the city, its watchmen stand guard in vain. 2In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for bread to eat — for He gives sleep to His beloved. 3Children are indeed a heritage from the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is His reward.
