1 When Jehovah brought back those that returned to Zion, We were like unto them that dream.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing: Then said they among the nations, Jehovah hath done great things for them.

3 Jehovah hath done great things for us, `Whereof' we are glad.

4 Turn again our captivity, O Jehovah, As the streams in the South.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves `with him'. Psalm 127 A Song of Ascents; of Solomon.
