Псалтирь 126

1 Внегда возвратити Господу плен Сионь, быхом яко утешени.

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

2 Тогда исполнишася радости уста наша, и язык наш веселия: тогда рекут во языцех: возвеличил есть Господь сотворити с ними.

Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say amongst the Gentiles,

3 Возвеличил есть Господь сотворити с нами: быхом веселящеся.

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

4 Возврати, Господи, пленение наше, яко потоки югом.

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

5 Сеющии слезами, радостию пожнут.

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 Ходящии хождаху и плакахуся, метающе семена своя: грядуще же приидут радостию, вземлюще рукояти своя.

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