| A Song of Ascents. | |
| 1 | When the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream. |
|
Εὰνμὴκύριοςοικοδομήσηοῖκον,ειςμάτηνεκοπίασανοιοικοδομοῦντεςαυτόν·εὰνμὴκύριοςφυλάξηπόλιν,ειςμάτηνηγρύπνησενοφυλάσσων.
|
|
| 2 | Then 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.” |
|
ειςμάτηνυμῖνεστιντοῦορθρίζειν,εγείρεσθαιμετὰτὸκαθῆσθαι,οιέσθοντεςάρτονοδύνης,ότανδῶτοῖςαγαπητοῖςαυτοῦύπνον.
|
|
| 3 | The LORD has done great things for us, And we are glad. |
|
ιδοὺηκληρονομίακυρίουυιοί,ομισθὸςτοῦκαρποῦτῆςγαστρός.
|
|
| 4 | Bring back our captivity, O LORD, As the streams in the South. |
|
ωσεὶβέληενχειρὶδυνατοῦ,ούτωςοιυιοὶτῶνεκτετιναγμένων.
|
|
| 5 | Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy. |
|
μακάριοςάνθρωπος,ὸςπληρώσειτὴνεπιθυμίαναυτοῦεξαυτῶν·ουκαταισχυνθήσονται,ότανλαλῶσιτοῖςεχθροῖςαυτῶνενπύλη.
|
|
| 6 | He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing his sheaves with him. |
