1When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
1Nyanyian ziarah. Ketika TUHAN memulihkan keadaan Yerusalem, kita seperti bermimpi!
2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh has done great things for them.”
2Kita terus tertawa dan menyanyi gembira sehingga bangsa-bangsa lain berkata, "TUHAN telah melakukan hal-hal yang hebat bagi mereka!"
3Yahweh has done great things for us, and we are glad.
3Memang TUHAN telah melakukan hal-hal yang hebat bagi kita! Sebab itulah kita bersukacita!
4Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev.
4Ya TUHAN, pulihkanlah keadaan kami, seperti sungai kering berair lagi di musim hujan.
5Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
5Semoga orang yang menabur sambil menangis, menuai dengan sorak-sorai.
6He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
6Orang pergi menabur benih di ladangnya, sambil bercucuran air mata. Ia pulang dengan menyanyi gembira membawa berkas-berkas panenannya.
