A Joyful Return to Zion
A Song of Ascents.
1When ⚓the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion,
⚓We were like those who dream.
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.”
3The Lord has done great things for us,
And we are glad.
4Bring back our captivity, O Lord,
As the streams in the South.
5⚓Those who sow in tears
Shall reap in joy.
6He who continually goes forth weeping,
Bearing seed for sowing,
Shall doubtless come again with ⚓rejoicing,
Bringing his sheaves with him.

上行之詩。被擄歸回者的歡樂
1當耶和華使錫安被擄的人歸回的時候，
我們好像做夢的人。
2那時，我們滿口喜笑、
滿舌歡呼；
那時，列國中就有人說：
「耶和華為他們行了大事！」
3耶和華果然為我們行了大事，
我們就歡喜。
4耶和華啊，求你使我們這些被擄的人歸回，
好像尼革夫⚓的河水復流。
5流淚撒種的，
必歡呼收割！
6那帶種流淚出去的，
必歡呼地帶禾捆回來！
