Psalms Chapter 125 (DRC)
Tap a verse to highlight it

1 A gradual canticle. When the Lord brought back the captivity of Sion, we became like men comforted.

2 Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy. Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things for them.

3 The Lord hath done great things for us: we are become joyful.

4 Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as a stream in the south.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 Going they went and wept, casting their seeds.

7 But coming they shall come with joyfulness, carrying their sheaves.
