Psalm 126

1. (0) A song of ascents: 1 (1) When Adonai restored Tziyon’s fortunes, 1 we thought we were dreaming.

2. Our mouths were full of laughter, 2 and our tongues shouted for joy. 2 Among the nations it was said, 2 “Adonai has done great things for them!”

3. Adonai did do great things with us; 3 and we are overjoyed.

4. Return our people from exile, Adonai, 4 as streams fill vadis in the Negev.

5. Those who sow in tears 5 will reap with cries of joy.

6. He who goes out weeping 6 as he carries his sack of seed 6 will come home with cries of joy 6 as he carries his sheaves of grain.
