126:1 When the LORD brought back the captives to Zion, we were like men who dreamed.
126:2 Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."
126:3 The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.
126:4 Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like streams in the Negev.
126:5 Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy.
126:6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him.
