Psalms 126

A Song of degrees.

1When YhwhH3068 turned againH7725 the captivityH7870 of ZionH6726, we were like them that dreamH2492.1

2Then was our mouthH6310 filledH4390 with laughterH7814, and our tongueH3956 with singingH7440: then saidH559 they among the heathenH1471, YhwhH3068 hath doneH6213 great thingsH1431 for them.2

3YhwhH3068 hath doneH6213 great thingsH1431 for us; whereof we are gladH8056.

4Turn againH7725 our captivityH7622, O YhwhH3068, as the streamsH650 in the southH5045.

5They that sowH2232 in tearsH1832 shall reapH7114 in joyH7440.3

6He that goethH3212 forthH1980 and weepethH1058, bearingH5375 preciousH4901 seedH2233, shall doubtlessH935 comeH935 again with rejoicingH7440, bringingH5375 his sheavesH485 with him.4
