Psalmorum 126

Clementine Vulgate, 1598
World English Bible
1Canticum graduum Salomonis. [Nisi Dominus ædificaverit domum, in vanum laboraverunt qui ædificant eam. Nisi Dominus custodierit civitatem, frustra vigilat qui custodit eam.
1When the LORD brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
2Vanum est vobis ante lucem surgere: surgite postquam sederitis, qui manducatis panem doloris. Cum dederit dilectis suis somnum,
2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”
3ecce hæreditas Domini, filii; merces, fructus ventris.
3The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.
4Sicut sagittæ in manu potentis, ita filii excussorum.
4Restore our fortunes again, LORD, like the streams in the Negev.
5Beatus vir qui implevit desiderium suum ex ipsis: non confundetur cum loquetur inimicis suis in porta.]
5Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
