Psalms 126

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. In YHWH’s turning back [to] the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.

١ تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ عِنْدَمَا رَدَّ ٱلرَّبُّ سَبْيَ صِهْيَوْنَ، صِرْنَا مِثْلَ ٱلْحَالِمِينَ.

2 Then our mouth is filled [with] laughter, And our tongue [with] singing, Then they say among nations, “YHWH did great things with these.”

٢ حِينَئِذٍ ٱمْتَلَأَتْ أَفْوَاهُنَا ضِحْكًا، وَأَلْسِنَتُنَا تَرَنُّمًا. حِينَئِذٍ قَالُوا بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ: «إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ عَظَّمَ ٱلْعَمَلَ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ».

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

٣ عَظَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْعَمَلَ مَعَنَا، وَصِرْنَا فَرِحِينَ.

4 Turn again, O YHWH, [to] our captivity, As streams in the south.

٤ ٱرْدُدْ يَارَبُّ سَبْيَنَا، مِثْلَ ٱلسَّوَاقِي فِي ٱلْجَنُوبِ.

5 Those sowing in tears, reap with singing,

٥ ٱلَّذِينَ يَزْرَعُونَ بِٱلدُّمُوعِ يَحْصُدُونَ بِٱلِٱبْتِهَاجِ.

6 Whoever goes on and weeps, Carrying the basket of seed, Surely comes in with singing, carrying his sheaves!

٦ ٱلذَّاهِبُ ذَهَابًا بِٱلْبُكَاءِ حَامِلًا مِبْذَرَ ٱلزَّرْعِ، مَجِيئًا يَجِيءُ بِٱلتَّرَنُّمِ حَامِلًا حُزَمَهُ.
