Psalms 126:1-5

¹“A song of the degrees.” When the Lord bringeth back again the captivity of Zion, then shall we be like dreamers.

²Then shall our mouth be filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then shall they say among the nations, Great things hath the Lord done for these.

³Great things would the Lord have done for us, whereat we should be joyful.

⁴Bring back again, O Lord, our captivity, like rivulets in arid land.

⁵Those that sow in tears shall reap with joyful song.
