Psalms 126

1 A Canticle in steps. When the Lord turned back the captivity of Zion, we became like those who are consoled.

Quando o Senhor trouxe do cativeiro os que voltaram a Sião estávamos com os que sonham.

2 Then our mouth was filled with gladness and our tongue with exultation. Then they will say among the nations: “The Lord has done great things for them.”

Então a nossa boca se encheu do riso e a nossa língua de cântico: então se dizia entre as nações: Grandes coisas fez o Senhor a estes.

3 The Lord has done great things for us. We have become joyful.

Grandes coisas fez o Senhor por nós, pelas quais estamos alegres.

4 Convert our captivity, O Lord, like a torrent in the south.

Traze-nos outra vez, ó Senhor, do cativeiro, como as correntes das águas no sul.

5 Those who sow in tears shall reap in exultation.

Os que semeiam em lágrimas segarão com alegria.

6 When departing, they went forth and wept, sowing their seeds. But when returning, they will arrive with exultation, carrying their sheaves.

Aquele que leva a preciosa semente, andando e chorando, voltará sem dúvida com alegria, trazendo consigo os seus molhos.
