Psalms 126

1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:

Hodočasnička pjesma. Kad Jahve vraćaše sužnjeve sionske, bilo nam je k'o da snivamo.

2 Then, was our mouth, filled with laughter, and our tongue with a shout of triumph, —Then, said they among the nations, Yahweh, hath done great things, with these!

Usta nam bjehu puna smijeha, a jezik klicanja. Među poganima tad se govorilo: “Velika im djela Jahve učini!”

3 Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!

Velika nam djela učini Jahve: opet smo radosni!

4 Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.

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

5 They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:

Oni koji siju u suzama, žanju u pjesmi.

6 He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.

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