Psalm 125

1A Song of Degrees.

When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones. 2Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say among the Gentiles, 3The Lord has done great things among them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.

4Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the streams in the south. 5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves with them.
