(A song for worship.)
Celebrating the Harvest
1 It seemed like a dream
when the Lord brought us back
to the city of Zion.
2 We celebrated with laughter
and joyful songs.
In foreign nations it was said,
“The Lord has worked miracles
for his people.”
3 And so we celebrated
because the Lord had indeed
worked miracles for us.
4 Our Lord, we ask you to bless
our people again,
and let us be like streams
in the Southern Desert.
5 We cried as we went out
to plant our seeds.
Now let us celebrate
as we bring in the crops.
6 We cried on the way
to plant our seeds,
but we will celebrate and shout
as we bring in the crops.
Pateicības dziesma, atgriežoties no trimdas
1 Augšupceļa dziesma.
Kad Kungs aizvestos pārveda Ciānā,
mums likās, ka redzam sapni!
2 Tad pildījās smiekliem mūsu mute
un mūsu valoda gavilēm,
tad runāja tautās:
re, diženas lietas Kungs dara ar šiem!
3 Diženas lietas Kungs darīja mums,
un mēs līksmojām!
4 Atjauno, Kungs, mūs kā straumes Negebā –
5 kas ar asarām sēj, ar gavilēm pļaus!
6 Raudādams aiziet, nes sētuvi laukā,
gavilēdams nāks, pārnesīs labības kūļus!
