Psalms 126

NEW JERUSALEM	VULGATA
1 [Song of Ascents] When Yahweh brought back Zion's captives we lived in a dream;	1 Canticum graduum Salomonis. Nisi Dominus ædificaverit domum, in vanum laboraverunt qui ædificant eam. Nisi Dominus custodierit civitatem, frustra vigilat qui custodit eam.
2 then our mouths fil ed with laughter, and our lips with song. Then the nations kept saying, 'What greatdeeds Yahweh has done for them!'	2 Vanum est vobis ante lucem surgere : surgite postquam sederitis, qui manducatis panem doloris. Cum dederit dilectis suis somnum,
3 Yes, Yahweh did great deeds for us, and we were overjoyed.	3 ecce hæreditas Domini, filii ; merces, fructus ventris.
4 Bring back, Yahweh, our people from captivity like torrents in the Negeb!	4 Sicut sagittæ in manu potentis, ita filii excussorum.
5 Those who sow in tears sing as they reap.	5 Beatus vir qui implevit desiderium suum ex ipsis : non confundetur cum loquetur inimicis suis in porta.
6 He went off, went off weeping, carrying the seed. He comes back, comes back singing, bringing inhis sheaves.
