Psalm 126

1A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that dream. 2Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.' 3The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced. 4Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land. 5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
