Psalms 126
1
A Song of Ascents. When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream.
2
Then our mouth was filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "The Lord has done great things for them."
3
The Lord has done great things for us, And we are glad.
4
Bring back our captivity, O Lord, As the streams in the South.
5
Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy.
6
He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing his sheaves with him.

It is vain for you to rise up early, To sit up late, To eat the bread of sorrows; For so He gives His beloved sleep.

Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one's youth.

Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; They shall not be ashamed, But shall speak with their enemies in the gate.
