Psalms 126

1 When the Lord made a change in Zion's fate, we were like men in a dream.

1When Jehovah brought back those that returned to Zion, We were like unto them that dream.

2Then our mouths were full of laughing, and our tongues gave a glad cry; they said among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them.

2Then was our mouth filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing: Then said they among the nations, Jehovah hath done great things for them.

3The Lord has done great things for us; because of which we are glad.

3Jehovah hath done great things for us, Whereofwe are glad.

4Let our fate be changed, O Lord, like the streams in the South.

4Turn again our captivity, O Jehovah, As the streams in the South.

5Those who put in seed with weeping will get in the grain with cries of joy.

5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6Though a man may go out weeping, taking his vessel of seed with him; he will come again in joy, with the corded stems of grain in his arms.

6He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
