Psalm 127:1-2
Evangelical Heritage Version

Psalm 127

The Lord Builds the House

Heading
A song of the ascents. By Solomon.

The Lord Builds the House

1 If the Lord does not build the house,
    it is useless for the builders to work hard over it.
If the Lord does not watch over the city,
    it is useless for the watchman to stand guard.
2 It is useless for you to get up early and to work late,
worrying about bread to eat,
because God grants sleep to the one he loves.[a]
