[126:1] When the Lord brought us back to Jerusalem, it was like a dream!
[126:2] How we laughed, how we sang for joy! Then the other nations said about us, “The Lord did great things for them.”
[126:3] Indeed he did great things for us; how happy we were!
[126:4] Lord, make us prosperous again, just as the rain brings water back to dry riverbeds.
[126:5] Let those who wept as they planted their crops, gather the harvest with joy!
[126:6] Those who wept as they went out carrying the seed will come back singing for joy, as they bring in the harvest.
