Psalm 126 - Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895

A Song of Ascents.

¹ When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, We were like unto them that dream.

² Then was our mouth filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing: Then said they among the nations, The LORD hath done great things for them.

³ The LORD hath done great things for us; Whereof we are glad.

⁴ Turn again our captivity, O LORD, As the streams in the South.

⁵ They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

⁶ Though he goeth on his way weeping, bearing forth the seed; He shall come again with joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
