New International Version
1 A song of ascents. Of Solomon. Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain.
2 and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves.
3 children a reward from him.
4 are sons born in one’s youth.
5 whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
