Psalms 127:3

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Lo - calling attention to a leading instance of the principle that all depends on God's blessing-namely, children.

Children are an heritage of the Lord - ; ; . As fathers bequeath inheritances to their children (), so God gives to His beloved sons children as their "heritage." First, he gives a house, security, and competent means (Psalms 127:1); then children to enjoy them with and after their parents.

And the fruit of the womb is his reward - (; .) "Reward," or hire, refers to , where Leah calls her son Issachar - i:e., a hire, or reward-because she regarded him as the reward given her by God for her disinterestedness in giving her maiden to her husband.
