Salamo 126

1 Fihirana fiakarana.

“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 Fahizay dia feno hehy ny vavantsika Sy fihobiana ny lelantsika; Dia natao tany amin’ ny Jentilisa hoe: Zava-dehibe no nataon’ i Jehovah ho an’ ireny.

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 Eny, zava-dehibe no nataon’ i Jehovah ho antsika, Ka dia faly isika.

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

4 Tanteraho, Jehovah ô, ny ham-podiana anay avy amin’ ny fahababoana, Tahaka ny fiverenan’ ny riaka any amin’ ny tany atsimo.

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

5 Izay mamafy am-pitomaniana Dia hijinja am-pifaliana.

They who sow in tears Shall reap in joy.

6 Mandeha mitomany mitondra ny voa afafiny izy, Fa hiverina mitondra ny amboarany amin’ ny fihobiana kosa.

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