< Psalmorum 126 >

1 Canticum graduum. In convertendo Dominus captivitatem Sion: facti sumus sicut consolati:
A Song of degrees. When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
2 Tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum: et lingua nostra exultatione. Tunc dicent inter gentes: Magnificavit Dominus facere cum eis.
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.
3 Magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum: facti sumus laetantes.
The LORD hath done great things for us; for which we are glad.
4 Converte Domine captivitatem nostram, sicut torrens in Austro.
Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.
5 Qui seminant in lacrymis, in exultatione metent.
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 Euntes ibant et flebant, mittentes semina sua. Venientes autem venient cum exultatione, portantes manipulos suos.
He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless return with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
