Berean Standard Bible
“Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are children born in one’s youth.”
Psalms 127 is a song of ascents attributed to Solomon that begins by saying that unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. It then turns to children as a gift from the Lord rather than a product of human effort.
