13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew "you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

9 Yet you brought me out of the womb; you made me trust in you, even at my mother's breast.

5 As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed "in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.

9 Do I bring to the moment of birth and not give delivery?" says the LORD. "Do I close up the womb when I bring to delivery?" says your God.

3 Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him.

17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

27 I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him.

21 A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world.

14 Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

16 And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.
