Texts -- Psalms 144:12-15 (NET)

Context
144:12 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 . 144:13 Our storehouses will be full , providing all kinds of food. Our sheep will multiply by the thousands and fill our pastures . 144:14 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 . 144:15 How blessed are the people who experience these things ! How blessed are the people whose God is the Lord !
