Psalms 126
Song of Ascents
1 When Yahweh brought Zion’s captives home, at first it seemed like a dream;
2 then our mouths filled with laughter and our lips with song. Even the pagans started talking about the marvels Yahweh had done for us!
3 What marvels indeed he did for us, and how overjoyed we were!
4 Yahweh, bring all our captives back again like torrents in the Negeb!
5 Those who went sowing in tears now sing as they reap.
6 They went away, went away weeping, carrying the seed; they come back, come back singing, carrying their sheaves.
