Psalm 126

A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem. 1When the LORD brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, Hebrew Zion.it was like a dream! 2 We were filled with laughter,and we sang for joy.And the other nations said,“What amazing things the LORD has done for them.” 3 Yes, the LORD has done amazing things for us!What joy!

4Restore our fortunes, LORD,as streams renew the desert. 5 Those who plant in tearswill harvest with shouts of joy. 6 They weep as they go to plant their seed,but they sing as they return with the harvest.
