Zaburi 126

1 Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Kane Jehova Nyasaye odwogo joma otwe Sayun, to ne ochalonwa mana lek.

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. When the Lord brought his people back from captivity to Zion, it was as if we were dreaming!

2 Ne wathungʼ gi nyiero kendo dhowa nopongʼ gi wende mor. Eka nowachore e dier ogendini niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osetimonegi gik madongo.”

We laughed so much, we sang for joy. The other nations said, “The Lord has done wonderful things for these people.”

3 Adier, Jehova Nyasaye osetimonwa gik madongo, omiyo wamor mokalo.

The Lord certainly has done wonderful things for us. How happy we were!

4 Duognwa gigewa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, mondo wachal gi aore man Negev.

Please return and help us again, Lord. Renew us like streams of water that renew the Negev desert.

5 Joma komo kodhi kaywak biro keyo ka wero wende mor.

Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy!

6 Ngʼat madhi oko kaywak, kotingʼo kodhi mikomo, biro duogo ka wero wende mor, kotingʼo cham mosechiek.

Those who weep as they go out to sow their seed will be singing in celebration when they carry the harvest home.
