Psalms

Chapter 126

1 When the LORD brought back those who returned to Zion , we were like those who dream .

2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter , and our tongue with singing . Then they said amongst the nations , " The LORD has done great things for them ."

3 The LORD has done great things for us , and we are glad .

4 Restore our fortunes again , LORD , like the streams in the Negev .

5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy .

6 He who goes out weeping , carrying seed for sowing , will certainly come again with joy , carrying his sheaves.
