Psalms 126

Psalms 126

1A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back the captives to Zion (Jerusalem), We were like those who dream [it seemed so unreal].

2Then our mouth was filled with laughter And our tongue with joyful shouting; Then they said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."

3The LORD has done great things for us; We are glad!

4Restore our captivity, O LORD, As the stream-beds in the South (the Negev) [are restored by torrents of rain].

5They who sow in tears shall reap with joyful singing.

6He who goes back and forth weeping, carrying his bag of seed [for planting], Will indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
