Notes on this text (1)
VBL Free Bible Version (Spanish)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Un cántico para los peregrinos que van a Jerusalén. ¡Cuando el Señor trajo a Israel de vuelta del cautiverio, fue como si estuviéramos soñando!
1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
2 Reímos mucho y cantamos de alegría. Las otras naciones dijeron, “El Señor ha hecho cosas maravillosas por su pueblo”.
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh has done great things for them.”
3 Ciertamente el Señor ha hecho cosas maravillosas por nosotros. ¡Cuánto nos alegramos!
3 Yahweh has done great things for us, and we are glad.
4 Por favor, vuelve y ayúdanos otra vez, Señor. Renuévanos como los arroyos de agua que renuevan el desierto de Negev.
4 Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev.
5 Los que siembran en lágrimas cosecharán con gritos de alegría!
5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
6 Los que lloran cuando salen a sembrar su semilla cantarán de júbilo cuando lleven la cosecha a casa.
6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXXV)

    "They that put their trust in the Lord shall be even as the mount Sion: they shall not be removed for ever" (ver. 1). 3. Who are these? "They shall stand fast for ever, who dwell in Jerusalem" (ver. 2).

  2. Quotes verse 126:5 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter IV — 1-42)

    Of that harvest it is said, "They that sow in tears shall reap with joy." But to that harvest not apostles, but angels, shall be sent forth.

  3. Quotes verse 126:5 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture IV)

    … by abstaining from wine and flesh, not because we abhor them as abominations, but because we look for our reward; that having scorned things sensible, we may enjoy a spiritual and intellectual feast; and that having now sown in tears we may reap in joy in the world to come.
