Psalms 126

Thomson(i) 1 A Song of the steps. When the Lord brought back the captivity of Sion; we were like them who are comforted. 2 Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation; then did they say among the nations, "The Lord hath done great things for them." 3 The Lord hath done great things for us; we are transported with rapturous joy. 4 Bring back, Lord, our captivity, like torrents in the south. 5 Let them who sow with tears reap with rapture. 6 They went step by step and wept sowing their seed; but let them come tripping with joy, carrying their sheaves.
