Psalms 126

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

Nyanyian ziarah. Ketika TUHAN memulihkan keadaan Yerusalem, kita seperti bermimpi!

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

Kita terus tertawa dan menyanyi gembira sehingga bangsa-bangsa lain berkata, "TUHAN telah melakukan hal-hal yang hebat bagi mereka!"

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

Memang TUHAN telah melakukan hal-hal yang hebat bagi kita! Sebab itulah kita bersukacita!

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

Ya TUHAN, pulihkanlah keadaan kami, seperti sungai kering berair lagi di musim hujan.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Semoga orang yang menabur sambil menangis, menuai dengan sorak-sorai.

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

Orang pergi menabur benih di ladangnya, sambil bercucuran air mata. Ia pulang dengan menyanyi gembira membawa berkas-berkas panenannya.
