תהילים פרק קכ״ו

שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלוֹת בְּשׁוּב יְהוָה אֶת־שִׁיבַת צִיּוֹן הָיִינוּ כְּחֹלְמִים׃

Shir hama'alot, beshuv Adonai et shivat Tziyon hayinu kecholmim.

A song of ascents. When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dreamed.

אָז יִמָּלֵא שְׂחוֹק פִּינוּ וּלְשׁוֹנֵנוּ רִנָּה אָז יֹאמְרוּ בַגּוֹיִם הִגְדִּיל יְהוָה לַעֲשׂוֹת עִם־אֵלֶּה׃

Az yimale sechok pinu ulshonenu rina, az yomru vagoyim higdil Adonai la'asot im ele.

Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, 'The LORD has done great things for them.'

הִגְדִּיל יְהוָה לַעֲשׂוֹת עִמָּנוּ הָיִינוּ שְׂמֵחִים׃

Higdil Adonai la'asot imanu, hayinu semechim.

The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.

שׁוּבָה יְהוָה אֶת־שְׁבִיתֵנוּ כַּאֲפִיקִים בַּנֶּגֶב׃

Shuva Adonai et shevitenu ka'afikim baNegev.

Restore our fortunes, LORD, like streams in the Negev.

הַזֹּרְעִים בְּדִמְעָה בְּרִנָּה יִקְצֹרוּ׃

Hazor'im bedim'a berina yiktzoru.

Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy.

הָלוֹךְ יֵלֵךְ וּבָכֹה נֹשֵׂא מֶשֶׁךְ־הַזָּרַע בֹּא־יָבוֹא בְרִנָּה נֹשֵׂא אֲלֻמֹּתָיו׃

Haloch yelech uvacho noseh meshech hazara, bo yavo verina noseh alumotav.

Those who go out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them.
