Psalms 126

1 When Yahweh brought [us Israeli people] back to Jerusalem (OR, enabled us Israelis to prosper again), [it was wonderful]; it seemed as though [SIM] we were dreaming.

Canción de las gradas. Cuando el SEÑOR hiciere tornar la cautividad de Sion, seremos como los que sueñan.

2 We were extremely happy, and we [SYN] continued shouting joyfully. Then the [other] people-groups said about us, “Yahweh has done great things for them!”

Entonces nuestra boca se llenará de risa, y nuestra lengua de alabanza; entonces dirán entre los gentiles: Grandes cosas ha hecho el SEÑOR con éstos.

3 [And we say, “Yes], Yahweh [truly] has done great things for us, and we are [very] happy.”

Grandes cosas ha hecho el SEÑOR con nosotros; estaremos alegres.

4 Yahweh, when it rains, water flows in the streams again [after they were dry] [SIM]. Similarly, enable our nation to become great again like it was before.

Haz volver nuestra cautividad oh SEÑOR, como los arroyos en el austro.

5 We cried when we planted [seeds because it was hard work preparing the soil that had not been plowed for many years]; [now we want to] shout joyfully because we are gathering a [big] harvest.

Los que sembraron con lágrimas, con regocijo segarán.

6 Those who cried as they carried the [bags of] seeds [to the fields] will shout joyfully when they bring the crops [to their houses at harvest time].

Irá andando y llorando el que lleva la preciosa simiente; mas volverá a venir con regocijo, trayendo sus gavillas.
