Psalm 125
1 A Song of Degrees.
When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion,
we became as comforted ones.
2 Then was our mouth filled with joy,
and our tongue with exultation:
then would they say among the Gentiles,
3 The Lord hath done great things among them.
The Lord hath done great things for us,
we became joyful.
4 Turn, O Lord, our captivity,
as the streams in the south.
5 They that sow in tears
shall reap in joy.
6 They went on and wept
as they cast their seeds;
but they shall surely come with exultation,
bringing their sheaves with them.
