Psalm 126. In convertendo.
WHEN the LORD turned again the captivity of Sion, then were we
like unto them that dream.
2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, * and our tongue with
joy.
3 Then said they among the heathen, * The LORD hath done great
things for them.
4 Yea, the LORD hath done great things for us already; * whereof
we rejoice.
5 Turn our captivity, O LORD, * as the rivers in the south.
6 They that sow in tears * shall reap in joy.
7 He that now goeth on his way weeping, and beareth forth good
seed, * shall doubtless come again with joy, and bring his sheaves
with him.
