Psalm 126:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
2 Then our mouths were filled with laughter;
our tongues sang for joy.(A)
Then it was said among the nations,
“The Lord had done great things for them.”
3 The Lord has done great things for us;
Oh, how happy we were!
4 Restore our captives, Lord,
like the dry stream beds of the Negeb.[a]
