Psalms 126

1 When the lord brought back the captivity of Sion, we became like men comforted.

שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת בְּשׁוּב יְהוָה אֶת־שִׁיבַת צִיּוֹן הָיִינוּ כְּחֹלְמִֽים׃

2 Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy. Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things for them.

אָז יִמָּלֵא שְׂחוֹק פִּינוּ וּלְשׁוֹנֵנוּ רִנָּה אָז יֹאמְרוּ בַגּוֹיִם הִגְדִּיל יְהוָה לַעֲשׂוֹת עִם־אֵֽלֶּה׃

3 The Lord hath done great things for us: we are become joyful.

הִגְדִּיל יְהוָה לַעֲשׂוֹת עִמָּנוּ הָיִינוּ שְׂמֵחִֽים׃

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

שׁוּבָה יְהוָה אֶת־שבותנו שְׁבִיתֵנוּ כַּאֲפִיקִים בַּנֶּֽגֶב׃

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

הַזֹּרְעִים בְּדִמְעָה בְּרִנָּה יִקְצֹֽרוּ׃

6 Going they went and wept, casting their seeds. But coming they shall come with joyfulness, carrying their sheaves.

הָלוֹךְ יֵלֵךְ ׀ וּבָכֹה נֹשֵׂא מֶֽשֶׁךְ־הַזָּרַע בֹּֽא־יָבוֹא בְרִנָּה נֹשֵׂא אֲלֻמֹּתָֽיו׃
