Psalms 126

Restoration and Joy

Restoration and Joy

1When Jehovah brought back those that returned to Zion , We were like unto them that dream . 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 .

The Nations' Response

3Jehovah hath done great things for us , Whereof we are glad .

A Prayer for Continued Restoration

4Turn again our captivity , O Jehovah , As the streams in the South . 5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy . 6He that goeth forth and weepeth , bearing seed for sowing , Shall doubtless come again with joy , bringing his sheaves with him .
