Psalms 126

A Song of degrees.

1When Yhwh turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.1

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

3Yhwh hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

4Turn again our captivity, O Yhwh, as the streams in the south.

5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.3

6He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.4
