‏ Psalms 126

PSAL. CXXVI.

A Song of degrees.

1 When Yhwh turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. ^{▼▼ turned…: Heb. returned the returning.} 2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, Yhwh hath done great things for them. ^{▼▼ hath…: Heb. hath magnified to do with them.} 3 Yhwh hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad. 4 Turn again our captivity, O Yhwh, as the streams in the south. 5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. ^{▼▼ joy: or, singing.} 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him. ^{▼▼ precious…: or, seed basket.}
