Psalmi 126

1 Svētku dziesma. Kad Tas Kungs atkal atveda Ciānas cietumniekus, tad mēs bijām tā kā kas sapņus redz;

A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that 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 was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.'

3 Tas Kungs lielas lietas pie mums ir darījis, par to priecājamies.

The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.

4 Ak Kungs, atved atpakaļ mūsu cietumniekus, kā upes dienvidu zemē!

Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.

5 Kas ar asarām sēj, ar gavilēšanu pļaus;

They that 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.

Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
