Psalm 127:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² It will not help you to work all day for food, and never stop.
God gives food to the people that he loves.
    Even while they sleep, God takes care of them.
³ Children are a gift from the Lord.
    He blesses us with descendants.
⁴ If you have sons while you are a young man,
    they are like a soldier's arrows.
