126:1 A Song of Ascents. When the Lord brought back the captives to Zion (Jerusalem), We were like those who dream [it seemed so unreal].
126:2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter And our tongue with joyful shouting; Then they said among the nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.”
126:3 The Lord has done great things for us; We are glad!
126:4 Restore our captivity, O Lord, As the stream-beds in the South (the Negev) [are restored by torrents of rain].
126:5 They who sow in tears shall reap with joyful singing.
126:6 He who goes back and forth weeping, carrying his bag of seed [for planting], Will indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
