Salmos 126

1 Cântico dos degraus: Quando o SENHOR restaurou Sião de seu infortúnio, estivemos como os que sonham.

A song of ascents. When the Lord turned the fortunes of Zion, we were like dreamers.

2 Então nossa boca se encheu de riso, e nossa língua de alegria; então diziam entre as nações: O SENHOR fez grandes coisas para estes.

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, our tongue with glad shouts; then among the nations they said, “The Lord has dealt greatly with them.”

3 Grandes coisas o SENHOR fez para nós; [por isso] estamos alegres.

The Lord had dealt greatly with us, and we were rejoicing.

4 Restaura-nos, ó SENHOR, como as correntes de águas no sul.

Turn our fortunes, O Lord, as the streams in the Negreb.

5 Os que semeiam em lágrimas colherão com alegria.

They who sow in tears shall reap with glad shouts.

6 Aquele que sai chorando com semente para semear voltará com alegria, trazendo sua colheita.

Forth they fare, with their burden of seed, and they weep as they go. But home, home, with glad shouts they shall come with their arms full of sheaves.
