< Mazmur 126 >
1 Nyanyian ziarah. Ketika TUHAN memulihkan keadaan Yerusalem, kita seperti bermimpi!
When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
2 Kita terus tertawa dan menyanyi gembira sehingga bangsa-bangsa lain berkata, "TUHAN telah melakukan hal-hal yang hebat bagi mereka!"
Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD has done great things for them.
3 Memang TUHAN telah melakukan hal-hal yang hebat bagi kita! Sebab itulah kita bersukacita!
The LORD has done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
4 Ya TUHAN, pulihkanlah keadaan kami, seperti sungai kering berair lagi di musim hujan.
Return our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
5 Semoga orang yang menabur sambil menangis, menuai dengan sorak-sorai.
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 Orang pergi menabur benih di ladangnya, sambil bercucuran air mata. Ia pulang dengan menyanyi gembira membawa berkas-berkas panenannya.
He that goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
