< Psalmi 126 >
1 Svētku dziesma. Kad Tas Kungs atkal atveda Ciānas cietumniekus, tad mēs bijām tā kā kas sapņus redz;
When Jehovah brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
2 Tad mūsu mute bija pilna smiešanās un mūsu mēle pilna gavilēšanas; tad sacīja starp pagāniem: Tas Kungs lielas lietas pie šiem ir darījis.
Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, Jehovah has done great things for them.
3 Tas Kungs lielas lietas pie mums ir darījis, par to priecājamies.
Jehovah has done great things for us. We are glad.
4 Ak Kungs, atved atpakaļ mūsu cietumniekus, kā upes dienvidu zemē!
Turn again our captivity, O Jehovah, as the streams in the South.
5 Kas ar asarām sēj, ar gavilēšanu pļaus;
Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 Tie aiziet un raud, dārgu sēklu nesdami, bet tiešām ar prieku tie atkal nāks un nesīs savus kūlīšus.
He who goes forth and weeps, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves.
