Psalmorum 126

1 canticum graduum in convertendo Dominum captivitatem Sion facti sumus sicut consolati

A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. When ye Lord brought againe the captiuitie of Zion, we were like them that dreame.

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 ioye: then sayd 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 vs, whereof we reioyce.

4 converte Domine captivitatem nostram sicut torrens in austro

O Lord, bring againe our captiuitie, as the riuers in the South.

5 qui seminant in lacrimis in exultatione metent

They that sowe in teares, shall reape in ioy.

6 euntes ibant et flebant portantes semina sua venientes autem venient in exultatione portantes manipulos suos

They went weeping and caried precious seede: but they shall returne with ioye and bring their sheaues.
