< Psalms 126 >
1 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
Canticum graduum. In convertendo Dominus captivitatem Sion: facti sumus sicut consolati:
2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD has done great things for them.
Tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum: et lingua nostra exultatione. Tunc dicent inter gentes: Magnificavit Dominus facere cum eis.
3 The LORD has done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
Magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum: facti sumus laetantes.
4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
Converte Domine captivitatem nostram, sicut torrens in Austro.
5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
Qui seminant in lacrymis, in exultatione metent.
6 He that goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
Euntes ibant et flebant, mittentes semina sua. Venientes autem venient cum exultatione, portantes manipulos suos.
