16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
3 Behold, children are a heritage of the LORD.
The fruit of the womb is his reward.
4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty man,
so are the children of youth.
5 Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them.
They won’t be disappointed when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
9 For what thanksgiving can we render again to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sakes before our God,
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation nor turning shadow.
3 I thank my God whenever I remember you,
1 Praise the LORD, my soul!
All that is within me, praise his holy name!
2 Praise the LORD, my soul,
and don’t forget all his benefits,
6 Children’s children are the crown of old men;
the glory of children is their parents.
27 I prayed for this child, and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him.
4 We will not hide them from their children,
telling to the generation to come the praises of the LORD,
his strength, and his wondrous deeds that he has done.
19 The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do today.
The father shall make known your truth to the children.
14 The women said to Naomi, "Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel. 15 He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him."
28 Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!
