Psalms 126
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Berean Standard Bible
1A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that dream.
1When the LORD restored the captives of Zion, we were like dreamers.
2Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.'
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 hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.
3The LORD has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.
4Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.
4Restore our captives, O LORD, like streams in the Negev.
5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
5Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.
6Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
6He who goes out weeping, bearing a trail of seed, will surely return with shouts of joy, carrying sheaves of grain.
