Psalms 126

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

1When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

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

1A Song of the Ascents. In Jehovah's turning back <FI>to<Fi> the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.

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.

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

2Then filled <FI>with<Fi> laughter is our mouth, And our tongue <FI>with<Fi> singing, Then do they say among nations, `Jehovah did great things with these.'

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

3The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

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

3Jehovah did great things with us, We have been joyful.

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

4Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as the streams in the south.

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

4Turn again, O Jehovah, <FI>to<Fi> our captivity, As streams in the south.

5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

5Those sowing in tears, with singing do reap,

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

6He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

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

6Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed, Surely cometh in with singing, bearing his sheaves!
