< Psalms 126 >
1 A Song of Degrees. When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones.
2 Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say amongst the Gentiles,
3 The Lord has done great things amongst them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.
4 Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the steams in the south.
5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves [with them].
