PSALM 126

Those Who Sow in Tears Shall Reap with Joy

A Song of Ascents.

1When Yahweh 1areturned 2the captive ones of Zion,

We were blike those who dream.

2Then our amouth was filled with laughter

And our btongue with shouts of joy;

Then they said among the nations,

“Yahweh has cdone great things for them.”

3Yahweh has done great things for us;

We are aglad.

4Restore our captivity, O Yahweh,

As the 1astreams in the Negev.

5Those who sow in atears shall reap with bshouts of joy.

6He who goes to and fro weeping, carrying his bag of seed,

Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, carrying his sheaves with him.
