Psalm 126

A Song of Ascents.

[126:1] When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream. [126:2] Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "Yahweh has done great things for them." [126:3] Yahweh has done great things for us, and we are glad. [126:4] Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev. [126:5] Those who sow in tears will reap in joy. [126:6] He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
