Summary of Psalms 126

When the LORD brought the captives back to Zion, it was like a dream. Their mouths were filled with laughter and singing, and even the nations said God had done great things for them. Now they pray for restoration again, like streams in the desert. Those who sow in tears will reap with joy.

Psalms 126:5 (KJV)

Psalms 126: full text (King James Version)

1 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.

3 The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
