Psalm 126:4–5

4 Restore our fortunes, O Lord,

like streams in the Negeb!

5 Those who sow in tears

shall reap with shouts of joy!

4 Turn again our captivity, O Lord,

As the streams in the south.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

4 Restore our fortunes, Lord,

as streams renew the desert.

5 Those who plant in tears

will harvest with shouts of joy.

4 Bring back our captivity, O Lord,

As the streams in the South.

5 Those who sow in tears

Shall reap in joy.

4 Lord, return our prisoners again,

as you bring streams to the desert.

5 Those who cry as they plant crops

will sing at harvest time.

4 Turn again our captivity, O Jehovah,

As the streams in the South.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

4 Turn our captivity, O Jehovah, as the streams in the south. 5 They that sow in tears shall reap with rejoicing:

4 Restore our fortunes, O Lord, 

as you restore streams ⸤to dry riverbeds⸥ in the Negev. 

5 Those who cry while they plant 

will joyfully sing while they harvest. 

4 Restore our fortunes, Lord,

like watercourses in the Negev.

5 Those who sow in tears

will reap with shouts of joy.

4 Restore our fortunes, O Lord,

like the watercourses in the Negeb.

5 May those who sow in tears

reap with shouts of joy.

4 Restore, O Yahweh, our fortunes

like the streams in the Negeb.

5 Those who sow with tears

shall reap with rejoicing.

4 Lord, bless us with great success again,

as rain makes streams flow in the Negev Desert.

5 Those who cry as they plant their crops

will sing with joy when they gather them in.

4 Restore our captivity, O Lord,

As the streams in the South.

5 Those who sow in tears shall reap with joyful shouting.
