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

Today’s Reading
Psalm
Chapter 126
A Song of degrees.
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

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.
