Psalm 126

1 A Song of Ascents. When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream.

1 When the LORD brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a 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."

2 We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. And the other nations said, “What amazing things the LORD has done for them.”

3 The Lord has done great things for us, And we are glad.

3 Yes, the LORD has done amazing things for us! What joy!

4 Bring back our captivity, O Lord, As the streams in the South.

4 Restore our fortunes, LORD, as streams renew the desert.

5 Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy.

5 Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.

6 He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing his sheaves with him.

6 They weep as they go to plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the harvest.
