Zabur 126

A Song of Ascents.

¹When Allah brought back those who returned to Al-Quds,

We were like those who dream.

²Then our mouth was filled with laughter,

And our tongue with singing.

Then among the nations they said,

"Allah has done great things for them."

³Allah has done great things for us,

And we are glad.

⁴Restore our fortunes again, Allah,

Like the streams in the Negev.

⁵Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

⁶He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing,

Will assuredly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
