PSALM 126

A Harvest of Joy

Psalm 126:1 When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream.

Psalm 126:2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”

Psalm 126:3 The LORD has done great things for us; we are glad.

Psalm 126:4 Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like the watercourses in the Neg'eb!

Psalm 126:5 May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy!

Psalm 126:6 He that goes forth weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
