1. [Song of Ascents] When Yahweh brought back Zion's captives we lived in a dream;

2. then our mouths filled with laughter, and our lips with song. Then the nations kept saying, 'What great deeds Yahweh has done for them!'

3. Yes, Yahweh did great deeds for us, and we were overjoyed.

4. Bring back, Yahweh, our people from captivity like torrents in the Negeb!

5. Those who sow in tears sing as they reap.

6. He went off, went off weeping, carrying the seed. He comes back, comes back singing, bringing in his sheaves.





“É difícil tornar-se santo. Difícil, mas não impossível. A estrada da perfeição é longa, tão longa quanto a vida de cada um. O consolo é o repouso no decorrer do caminho. Mas, apenas restauradas as forças, é necessário levantar-se rapidamente e retomar a viagem!” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
