Psalm 126
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

Psalm 126

A Harvest of Joy

A Song of Ascents.

1 When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,[a]
    we were like those who dream.(A)
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter
    and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then it was said among the nations,
    “The Lord has done great things for them.”(B)
3 The Lord has done great things for us,
    and we rejoiced.(C)

4 Restore our fortunes, O Lord,
    like the watercourses in the Negeb.(D)
5 May those who sow in tears
    reap with shouts of joy.(E)
6 Those who go out weeping,
    bearing the seed for sowing,
shall come home with shouts of joy,
    carrying their sheaves.
