Psalm 144:12-15
King James Version
12 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:
13 That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:
14 That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.
15 Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the Lord.

New King James Version
12 That our sons may be (A)as plants grown up in their youth;
That our daughters may be as [a]pillars,
Sculptured in palace style;
13 That our barns may be full,
Supplying all kinds of produce;
That our sheep may bring forth thousands
And ten thousands in our fields;
14 That our oxen may be well laden;
That there be no [b]breaking in or going out;
That there be no outcry in our streets.
15 (B)Happy are the people who are in such a state;
Happy are the people whose God is the Lord!
