Psalm 126

Previous chapter Index Next chapter

1 (125-1) ^^ The Song of the Ascension. ^^ When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, we were as if seers in a dream:
2 (125-2) Then our mouth was full of joy, and our tongue was singing; Then the nations said: "The Lord has done great things for them!"
3 The LORD hath done great things for us; we rejoiced.

4 (125-4) Return, O LORD, our captives, like the torrents at noon.
5 (125-5) They that sow in tears shall reap with joy.
6th (125-6) With weeping the bearer of the seed will return with joy, carrying his sheaves.
