1When the LORD restored the captives of Zion,
we were like dreamers.
2Then our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with shouts of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
“The LORD has done great things for them.”
3The LORD has done great things for us;
we are filled with joy.
— Psalm 126:1-3
