Psalmorum 126

1 canticum graduum in convertendo Dominum captivitatem Sion facti sumus sicut consolati

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

2 tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum et lingua nostra exultatione tunc dicent inter gentes magnificavit Dominus facere cum eis

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

3 magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum facti sumus laetantes

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

4 converte Domine captivitatem nostram sicut torrens in austro

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

5 qui seminant in lacrimis in exultatione metent

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 euntes ibant et flebant portantes semina sua venientes autem venient in exultatione portantes manipulos suos

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