Read Psalms 124-126

 

Psalm 126 (Easy-to-Read Version)

 

¹ It will be like a dream

    when the Lord comes back with the captives of Zion.

² We will laugh and sing happy songs!

    Then the other nations will say,

    “The Lord did a great thing for Zion!”

³ Yes, we will be happy

    because the Lord did a great thing for us.

⁴ So, Lord, bring back the good times,

 like a desert stream filled again with flowing water.

⁵ Then those who were sad when they planted

    will be happy when they gather the harvest!

⁶ Those who cried as they carried the seeds

    will be happy when they bring in the crops!
