[1]A Song of Ascents; of Solomon. Except ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ build the house, they labour in vain that build it; except ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. [2]It is vain for you that ye rise early, and sit up late, ye that eat the bread of toil; so He giveth unto His beloved in sleep. [3]Lo, children are a heritage of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎; the fruit of the womb is a reward. [4]As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of one's youth. [5]Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them; they shall not be put to shame, when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
