Psalm 126
A song for going up to worship.
1When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,
it was as if we were dreaming.
2Then our mouths were filled with laughter
and our tongues with joyful songs.
Then the nations said,
“The Lord has done spectacular things for them.”
3The Lord has done spectacular things for us.
We are overjoyed.
4Restore our fortunes, O Lord,
as you restore streams ⌞to dry riverbeds⌟ in the Negev.
5Those who cry while they plant
will joyfully sing while they harvest.
6The person who goes out weeping, carrying his bag of seed,
will come home singing, carrying his bundles of grain.

Psalms 126
126
A Prayer for Deliverance
1When the LORD brought us back to Jerusalem,#126.1 brought us back to Jerusalem; or made Jerusalem prosperous again.
it was like a dream!
2How we laughed, how we sang for joy!
Then the other nations said about us,
“The LORD did great things for them.”
3Indeed he did great things for us;
how happy we were!
4 LORD, make us prosperous again,#126.4 make… again; or take us back to our land.
just as the rain brings water back to dry riverbeds.
5Let those who wept as they sowed their seed,
gather the harvest with joy!
6Those who wept as they went out carrying the seed
will come back singing for joy,
as they bring in the harvest.
