^{1 Ref} Except Jehovah build the house, They labor in vain that build it: Except Jehovah keep the city, The watchman waketh but in vain.

^{2 Ref} It is vain for you to rise up early, To take rest late, To eat the bread of toil; `For' so he giveth unto his beloved sleep.

^{3 Ref} Lo, children are a heritage of Jehovah; `And' the fruit of the womb is `his' reward.

^{4 Ref} As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, So are the children of youth.

^{5 Ref} Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: They shall not be put to shame, When they speak with their enemies in the gate. Psalm 128 A Song of Ascents.
