Psalm 126
NET Parallel NASB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleNew American Standard Bible 1995
1A song of ascents. When the LORD restored the well-being of Zion, we thought we were dreaming. 1A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back the captive ones of Zion, We were like those who dream.
2At that time we laughed loudly and shouted for joy. At that time the nations said, "The LORD has accomplished great things for these people." 2Then our mouth was filled with laughter And our tongue with joyful shouting; Then they said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."
3The LORD did indeed accomplish great things for us. We were happy. 3The LORD has done great things for us; We are glad.
4O LORD, restore our well-being, just as the streams in the arid south are replenished. 4Restore our captivity, O LORD, As the streams in the South.
5Those who shed tears as they plant will shout for joy when they reap the harvest. 5Those who sow in tears shall reap with joyful shouting.
6The one who weeps as he walks along, carrying his bag of seed, will certainly come in with a shout of joy, carrying his sheaves of grain. 6He who goes to and fro weeping, carrying his bag of seed, Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
