Psalms 126

1 A Song of degrees. 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 hath done great things for them.

Tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum, et lingua nostra exsultatione. Tunc dicent inter gentes: Magnificavit Dominus facere cum eis.

3 The LORD hath done great things for us; [of which] we are glad.

Magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum; facti sumus lætantes.

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 lacrimis, in exsultatione metent.

6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless return with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves [with him].

Euntes ibant et flebant, mittentes semina sua. Venientes autem venient cum exsultatione, portantes manipulos suos.
