A Song of Ascents.
126:1When Jehovah brought back those that returned to Zion,
We were like unto them that dream.
126:2Then was our mouth filled with laughter,
And our tongue with singing:
Then said they among the nations,
Jehovah hath done great things for them.
126:3Jehovah hath done great things for us,
Whereof we are glad.
126:4Turn again our captivity, O Jehovah,
As the streams in the South.
126:5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
126:6He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing seed for sowing,
Shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
