Psalms 126

Psalms · Thomson 1808 · public domain

1WHEN the Lord brought back the captivity of Sion; we were like them who are comforted.

2Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation—then did they say among the nations, “The Lord hath done great things for them.”

3The Lord hath done great things for us; we are transported with rapturous joy.

4Bring back, O Lord, our captivity, like torrents in the south.

5Let them who sow with tears reap with rapture.

6They went step by step and wept sowing their seed; but let them come tripping with joy, carrying their sheaves.
