< Psalms 126 >
1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
上行之詩。 當耶和華將那些被擄的帶回錫安的時候, 我們好像做夢的人。
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh has done great things for them.”
我們滿口喜笑、 滿舌歡呼的時候, 外邦中就有人說: 耶和華為他們行了大事!
3 Yahweh has done great things for us, and we are glad.
耶和華果然為我們行了大事, 我們就歡喜。
4 Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev.
耶和華啊,求你使我們被擄的人歸回, 好像南地的河水復流。
5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
流淚撒種的, 必歡呼收割!
6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
那帶種流淚出去的, 必要歡歡樂樂地帶禾捆回來!
