"Then our sons will be like well-nurtured plants, our daughters like pillars carved to adorn a palace."
— Psalms 144:12, World English 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 plants, that quickly grow to full size. Our daughters will be like corner pillars, carved like those in 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:”
I will sing a new song to you, God. On a ten-stringed lyre, I will sing praises to you.
You are he who gives salvation to kings, who rescues David, his servant, from the deadly sword.
Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hands of foreigners, whose mouths speak deceit, whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
Then our sons will be like well-nurtured plants, our daughters like pillars carved to adorn a palace.
Our barns are full, filled with all kinds of provision. Our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
Our oxen will pull heavy loads. There is no breaking in, and no going away, and no outcry in our streets.
Happy are the people who are in such a situation. Happy are the people whose God is Yahweh. A praise psalm by David.
