Psalms 127:1

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of Solomon. If the Lord doesn't build the house, the work of the builders is futile. If the Lord doesn't guard the city, the work of the guards is pointless.

A song of ascents: for Solomon. Unless the LORD builds the house, the builders labor in vain; unless the LORD guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.
