2 His children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth.
5 Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
Psalm 128:1-4 (NIV)
A song of ascents.
1 Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in his ways.
2 You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. 3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table. 4 Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
Proverbs 13:22 (NIV)
22 A good man leaves an inheritance for his children's children,
but a sinner's wealth is stored up for the righteous.
Proverbs 19:14 (NIV)
14 Houses and wealth are inherited from parents,
but a prudent wife is from the LORD.
