NET Bible
"Then our sons will be like plants, that quickly grow to full size. Our daughters will be like corner pillars, carved like those in a palace."
— Psalms 144:12, NET Bible
“That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:”
“ When our sons shall be as plants grown up in their youth, And our daughters as corner-stones hewn after the fashion of a palace; ”
“Then our sons will be like well-nurtured plants, our daughters like pillars carved to adorn a palace.”
“To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom.”
“Our sons are like tall young plants; and our daughters like the shining stones of a king's house;”
“That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:”
O God, I will sing a new song to you! Accompanied by a ten-stringed instrument, I will sing praises to you,
the one who delivers kings, and rescued David his servant from a deadly sword.
Grab me and rescue me from the power of foreigners, who speak lies, and make false promises.
Then our sons will be like plants, that quickly grow to full size. Our daughters will be like corner pillars, carved like those in a palace.
Our storehouses will be full, providing all kinds of food. Our sheep will multiply by the thousands and fill our pastures.
Our cattle will be weighted down with produce. No one will break through our walls, no one will be taken captive, and there will be no terrified cries in our city squares.
How blessed are the people who experience these things! How blessed are the people whose God is the LORD!
