NIRV:Psalm 126-150|Bible.eu

Psalm 126

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.

¹Our enemies took us away from Zion.
    But when the Lord brought us home,
    it seemed like a dream to us.
²Our mouths were filled with laughter.
    Our tongues sang with joy.
Then the people of other nations said,
    “The Lord has done great things for them.”
³The Lord has done great things for us.
    And we are filled with joy.

⁴Lord, bless us with great success again,
    as rain makes streams flow in the Negev Desert.
⁵Those who cry as they plant their crops
    will sing with joy when they gather them in.
⁶Those who go out weeping
    as they carry seeds to plant
will come back singing with joy.
    They will bring the new crop back with them.
