Psalmi 126

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

A Song of Degrees. When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones.

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 joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say among the Gentiles,

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

The Lord has done great things among them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.

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

Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the steams in the south.

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.

They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves [with them].
