< Psalms 126 >
1 A Song of Degrees. When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones.
上行之诗。 当耶和华将那些被掳的带回锡安的时候, 我们好像做梦的人。
2 Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say amongst the Gentiles,
我们满口喜笑、 满舌欢呼的时候, 外邦中就有人说: 耶和华为他们行了大事!
3 The Lord has done great things amongst them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.
耶和华果然为我们行了大事, 我们就欢喜。
4 Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the steams in the south.
耶和华啊,求你使我们被掳的人归回, 好像南地的河水复流。
5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
流泪撒种的, 必欢呼收割!
6 They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves [with them].
那带种流泪出去的, 必要欢欢乐乐地带禾捆回来!
