Psalms 126

¹When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion,

We were like unto them that dream.

²Then 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.

³The LORD hath done great things for us;

Whereof we are glad.

⁴Turn again our captivity, O LORD ,

As the streams in the South.

⁵They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

⁶Though he goeth on his way weeping, bearing forth the seed;

He shall come again with joy, bringing his sheaves with him .
