Psalm 127:1-2 (New Revised Standard)
1
Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord guards the city, the guard keeps watch in vain.
2
It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives sleep to his beloved. a
