Psalms 126
Zion’s Captives Restored
A song of ascents.
1Then our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with shouts of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”2The LORD has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.
3Restore our captives, O LORD, like streams in the Negev.
4Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.
5He who goes out weeping, bearing a trail of seed, will surely return with shouts of joy, carrying sheaves of grain.
