Psalms 78-150 - Geneva Bible

6
They went weeping and carried precious seed: but they shall return with joy
and bring their sheaves.
Psalm 127
1 A song of degrees, or Psalm of Solomon. Except the Lord build the house, they
labor in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the keeper watcheth in
vain.
2
It is in vain for you to rise early, and to lie down late, and eat the bread of
sorrow: but he will surely give rest to his beloved.
3
Behold, children are the inheritance of the Lord, and the fruit of the womb his
reward.
4
As are the arrows in the hand of ye strong man: so are the children of youth.
5
Blessed is the man, that hath his quiver full of them: for they shall not be
ashamed, when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
Psalm 128
1 A song of degrees. Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord and walketh in
his ways.
2
When thou eatest the labors of thine hands, thou shalt be blessed, and it shall
be well with thee.
3
Thy wife shall be as the fruitful vine on the sides of thine house, and thy
children like the olive plants round about thy table.
4
Lo, surely thus shall the man be blessed, that feareth the Lord.
5
The Lord out of Zion shall bless thee, and thou shalt see the wealth of
Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6
Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.
Psalm 129
