< Psalms 126 >
1 A song of ascents. When Yahweh restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream.
canticum graduum in convertendo Dominum captivitatem Sion facti sumus sicut consolati
2 Then our mouths were filled with laughter and our tongues with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh 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 Yahweh did great things for us; how glad we were!
magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum facti sumus laetantes
4 Restore our fortunes, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev.
converte Domine captivitatem nostram sicut torrens in austro
5 Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.
qui seminant in lacrimis in exultatione metent
6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will return again with shouts of joy, bringing his bundles of grain with him.
euntes ibant et flebant portantes semina sua venientes autem venient in exultatione portantes manipulos suos
