Psalmi 126

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

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” When the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like 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 for them!”

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

Yea, the LORD hath done great things for us, For which we are glad.

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

Bring back, O LORD! our captivity, Like streams in the South!

5 Kas ar asarām sēj, ar gavilēšanu pļaus;

They 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.

Yea, he goeth forth weeping, bearing his seed; He shall surely come back rejoicing, bearing his sheaves.
