Psalms 126

1 A Song of Ascents. When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like unto them that dream.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the nations, The LORD hath done great things for them.

3 The LORD hath done great things for us; [whereof] we are glad.

4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the South.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 Though he goeth on his way weeping, bearing forth the seed; he shall come again with joy, bringing his sheaves [with him].
