Psalms 126:6 - Exposition

He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed ; literally, going he goes and weeping ; i . e . weeping every step as he goes—"bearing the draught of seed," i . e . the seed which he has drawn forth from his bag, and is about to scatter on the earth. Thus it is that he "goes forth." How differently does he return! He shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him ; literally, coming he comes with a cry of joy , bearing with him his sheaves . He obtains in the end an ample return for all his labors.
