Psalm 126
ESV Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
English Standard VersionInternational Standard Version
1When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream.1When the LORD brought back Zion's exiles, we were like dreamers.
2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”2Then our mouths were filled with laughter, and our tongues formed joyful shouts. Then it was said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."
3The LORD has done great things for us; we are glad.3The great things that the LORD has done for us gladden us.
4Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like streams in the Negeb!4Restore our exiles, LORD, like the streams of the Negev.
5Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy!5Those who weep while they plant will sing for joy while they harvest.
6He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.6The one who goes out weeping, carrying a bag of seeds, will surely return with a joyful song, bearing sheaves from his harvest.
