Psalm 126

Menge Bibel

1 Ein Wallfahrtslied (oder Stufenlied? vgl. Ps 120). Als der HERR einst Zions Mißgeschick wandte, da war’s uns, als träumten wir. 

2 Damals war unser Mund voll Lachens und unsre Zunge voll Jubels; damals sagte man unter den Heiden: »Der HERR hat Großes an ihnen getan!« 

3 Ja, Großes hatte der HERR an uns getan: wie waren wir fröhlich! 

4 Wende, o HERR, unser Mißgeschick gleich den Bächen im Mittagsland! 

5 Die mit Tränen säen, werden mit Jubel ernten. 

6 Wohl schreitet man weinend dahin, wenn man trägt den Samen zur Aussaat; doch jubelnd kehrt man heim, mit Garben beladen.

Restore Our Fortunes, O Lord

1 A Song of Ascents. When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. (Ps 14,7; Ps 120,1; Apg 12,9) 

2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.” (Hi 8,21; Ps 71,19) 

3 The Lord has done great things for us; we are glad. 

4 Restore our fortunes, O Lord, like streams in the Negeb! 

5 Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy! (Esr 6,22; Neh 12,43; Jer 31,9; Hag 2,3; Gal 6,9) 

6 He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
