Psalmi 126

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

[A Song of Ascents.] When Jehovah brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.

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

Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "Jehovah has done great things for them."

3 Velika nam djela učini Jahve: opet smo radosni!

Jehovah has done great things for us, and we are glad.

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

Restore our fortunes again, Jehovah, like the streams in the Negev.

5 Oni koji siju u suzama, žanju u pjesmi.

Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

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

He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
