The new translation of Psalm 127

Sometimes I wonder when the bible got changed to...

Children are a burden resulting from our own actions;
The fruit of the womb is the consequence of our own irresponsibility.
Like arrows in the hand of a fool are the children born in one's youth--
Overwhelmed and unfortunate is the man that has his quiver too full of them.
They should be ashamed, and will just look like idiots to their enemies at the gate.

Psalm 127:3-5 New Worldly Translation

Don't you?

very well said. It's sad and unfortunately true. And the worst offenders are in the church. I hope everything is going well for you. Do you know what you're having?

I found you through Home Instead, and have really enjoyed my peek around your blog. Thank you for the encouragement you give to be a Godly wife and mother, a woman who delights in children and welcomes them with the love of Jesus!
