Salmos 126

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

A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:

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, and our tongue with a shout of triumph, —Then, said they among the nations, Yahweh, hath done great things, with these!

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

Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!

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

Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.

5 Os que semeiam em lágrimas colherão com alegria.

They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:

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

He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.
