Psalm 127:3-5
International Standard Version

3 Children[a] are a gift[b] from the Lord;
    a productive womb, the Lord’s[c] reward.
4 As arrows in the hand of a warrior,
    so also are children[d] born during one’s[e] youth.
5 How blessed[f] is the man whose quiver is full of them!
    He[g] will not be ashamed
        as they confront their enemies at the city gate.
