Psalm 126

1When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
1When the LORD brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
2Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.
2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”
3The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
3The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.
4Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
4Restore our fortunes again, LORD, like the streams in the Negev.
5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
5Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
6He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
6He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
