Psalmi 126

1 Hodočasnička pjesma. Kad Jahve vraćaše sužnjeve sionske, bilo nam je k'o da snivamo.

A Song of Degrees. When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones.

2 Usta nam bjehu puna smijeha, a jezik klicanja. Među poganima tad se govorilo: “Velika im djela Jahve učini!”

Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say amongst the Gentiles,

3 Velika nam djela učini Jahve: opet smo radosni!

The Lord has done great things amongst them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.

4 Vrati, o Jahve, sužnjeve naše k'o potoke negepske!

Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the steams in the south.

5 Oni koji siju u suzama, žanju u pjesmi.

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 Išli su plačući noseći sjeme sjetveno: vraćat će se s pjesmom, noseći snoplje svoje.

They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves [with them].
