the watchman stays awake in vain.

3 Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb a reward.

are the childrena of one’s youth.

who fills his quiver with them!
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.b
who fills his quiver with them!
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.b
