Psalms 126

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

Canticum graduum. In convertendo Dominus captivitatem Sion, facti sumus sicut consolati.

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.

Tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum, et lingua nostra exsultatione. Tunc dicent inter gentes: Magnificavit Dominus facere cum eis.

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

Magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum; facti sumus lætantes.

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

Converte, Domine, captivitatem nostram, sicut torrens in austro.

5 Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Qui seminant in lacrimis, in exsultatione metent.

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

Euntes ibant et flebant, mittentes semina sua. Venientes autem venient cum exsultatione, portantes manipulos suos.
