1朝圣之歌(原文作“往上行之歌”)。耶和华使被掳的人归回锡安的时候,我们好像在作梦的人。(本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题)
1A Song of the Ascents. In Jehovah`s turning back [to] the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.
2那时,我们满口喜笑,满舌欢呼;那时列国中有人说:“耶和华为他们行了大事。”
2Then filled [with] laughter is our mouth, And our tongue [with] singing, Then do they say among nations, `Jehovah did great things with these.`
3耶和华为我们行了大事,我们就欢喜。
3Jehovah did great things with us, We have been joyful.
4耶和华啊,求你使我们被掳的人归回,像南地的河水复流一样。
4Turn again, O Jehovah, [to] our captivity, As streams in the south.
5那些流泪撒种的,必欢呼收割。
5Those sowing in tears, with singing do reap,
6那带着种子流着泪出去撒种的,必带着禾捆欢呼快乐地回来。
6Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed, Surely cometh in with singing, bearing his sheaves!
