Psalms 126

1 When Jehovah brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.

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

2 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.

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

3 Jehovah has done great things for us. We are glad.

Velika nam djela učini Jahve: opet smo radosni!

4 Turn again our captivity, O Jehovah, as the streams in the South.

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

5 Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Oni koji siju u suzama, žanju u pjesmi.

6 He who goes forth and weeps, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves.

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