8 Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices;

together they shout for joy.

When the Lord returns to Zion,

they will see it with their own eyes.

8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice;

With the voice together shall they sing:

For they shall see eye to eye,

When the Lord shall bring again Zion.

8 The watchmen shout and sing with joy,

for before their very eyes

they see the Lord returning to Jerusalem.

8 Your watchmen shall lift up their voices,

With their voices they shall sing together;

For they shall see eye to eye

When the Lord brings back Zion.

8 Listen! Your guards are shouting.

They are all shouting for joy!

They all will see with their own eyes

when the Lord returns to Jerusalem.

8 The voice of thy watchmen! they lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when Jehovah returneth to Zion.

8 —The voice of thy watchmen, they lift up the voice, they sing aloud together; for they shall see eye to eye, when Jehovah shall bring again Zion.

8 Listen! Your watchmen raise their voices 

and shout together joyfully. 

When the Lord brings Zion back, 

they will see it with their own eyes. 

8 The voices of your watchmen —

they lift up their voices,

shouting for joy together;

for every eye will see

when the Lord returns to Zion.

8 Listen! Your sentinels lift up their voices,

together they sing for joy;

for in plain sight they see

the return of the Lord to Zion.

8 The voices of your watchmen! They lift up their voices;

together they sing for joy;

for they clearly see Yahweh’s return to Zion.

8 Listen! Those on guard duty are shouting out the message.

With their own eyes

they see the Lord returning to Zion.

So they shout with joy.

8 Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices,

They shout joyfully together;

For they will see with their own eyes

When the Lord restores Zion.
