Psalms 126

1 [A Song of Ascents.] When the LORD 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, "The LORD 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 The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.

Velika nam djela učini Jahve: opet smo radosni!

4 Restore our fortunes again, LORD, like the streams in the Negev.

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

5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

Oni koji siju u suzama, žanju u pjesmi.

6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.

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