1. [Song of Ascents Of Solomon] If Yahweh does not build a house in vain do its builders toil. If Yahweh does not guard a city in vain does its guard keep watch.

2. In vain you get up earlier, and put off going to bed, sweating to make a living, since it is he who provides for his beloved as they sleep.

3. Sons are a birthright from Yahweh, children are a reward from him.

4. Like arrows in a warrior's hand are the sons you father when young.

5. How blessed is the man who has filled his quiver with them; in dispute with his enemies at the city gate he will not be worsted.





“Mesmo quando perdemos a consciência deste mundo, quando parecemos já mortos, Deus nos dá ainda uma chance de entender o que é realmente o pecado, antes de nos julgar. E se entendemos corretamente, como podemos não nos arrepender?” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
