\d A psalm written for people going up to the temple to worship.
|
|
\b
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 When Yahweh made Jerusalem prosperous again,
|
|
\q1 it was wonderful;
|
|
\q2 it seemed as though we were dreaming.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 We were extremely happy,
|
|
\q1 and we continued shouting joyfully.
|
|
\q1 Then the other people groups said about us,
|
|
\q2 "Yahweh has done great things for them!"
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 We said, "Yes, Yahweh truly has done great things for us,
|
|
\q2 and we are very happy."
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 Restore us, O Yahweh, like the rains that fill the streams in the southern Judean wilderness.
|
|
\q2 Enable our nation to become great again like it was before.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 We cried when we planted seeds because it was hard work preparing the soil that had not been plowed for many years;
|
|
\q1 now we want to shout joyfully because we are gathering a big harvest.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 Those who cried as they carried the bags of seeds to the fields will shout joyfully
|
|
\q2 when they bring the crops to their houses at harvest time.
