Psalms 126

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

Внегда возвратити Господу плен Сионь, быхом яко утешени.

2 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.’

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

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

Возвеличил есть Господь сотворити с нами: быхом веселящеся.

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

Возврати, Господи, пленение наше, яко потоки югом.

5 They who sow in tears shall reap with glad shouts.

Сеющии слезами, радостию пожнут.

6 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.

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