Pes(Lam)
The First Book of Clement
1Clem
[1]EXCEPT the LORD build the house, they labor in vain who build it; except the LORD keep the city, the watchmen stay awake in vain. [No book]
[2]It is in vain for those who rise up early, who sit up late; they eat the bread of sorrows, for so he gives in sleep to his beloved. [No book]
[3]Lo, children are a heritage of the LORD; and the fruit of the womb is a reward. [No book]
[4]Like arrows in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. [No book]
[5]Blessed is the man who has his quiver full of them; he shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with enemies in the gate. [No book]
