Masalimo 126

1 Nyimbo yoyimba pokwera ku Yerusalemu. Yehova atabwezera akapolo ku Ziyoni, tinali ngati amene akulota.

A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. When ye Lord brought againe the captiuitie of Zion, we were like them that dreame.

2 Pakamwa pathu panadzaza ndi kuseka; malilime athu ndi nyimbo zachimwemwe. Pamenepo kunanenedwa pakati pa anthu kuti, “Yehova wawachitira zinthu zazikulu.”

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with ioye: then sayd they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.

3 Yehova watichitira zinthu zazikulu, ndipo tadzazidwa ndi chimwemwe.

The Lord hath done great things for vs, whereof we reioyce.

4 Tibwezereni madalitso athu, Inu Yehova, monga mitsinje ya ku Negevi.

O Lord, bring againe our captiuitie, as the riuers in the South.

5 Iwo amene amafesa akulira, adzakolola akuyimba nyimbo zachimwemwe.

They that sowe in teares, shall reape in ioy.

6 Iye amene amayendayenda nalira, atanyamula mbewu yokafesa, adzabwerera akuyimba nyimbo zachimwemwe, atanyamula mitolo yake.

They went weeping and caried precious seede: but they shall returne with ioye and bring their sheaues.
