Verse 4 is found in chapter 127 of Psalms. Psalm 127 challenges human self-sufficiency in building, protection, and work. Building a house, guarding a city, or rising early is useless if the Lord does not sustain the work. The psalm connects this dependence with family and presents children as an inheritance from the Lord. The image of arrows in the hands of a warrior highlights the value of descendants who participate in the continuity and defense of the community.

Wie die Pfeile in der Hand des Starken, also geraten die jungen Knaben.
Como saetas en mano del valiente, Así son los hijos habidos en la juventud.
Como flechas en la mano de un guerrero son los hijos nacidos en la juventud.
Comme les flèches dans la main d'un guerrier, Ainsi sont les fils de la jeunesse.
Quali son le saette in mano d’un valent’uomo, Tali sono i figliuoli in giovanezza.
Como flechas na mão de um homem poderoso, assim são os filhos da mocidade.
人在年輕時生的兒女 好像勇士手中的箭。
