Psalms 126

1 A Canticle in steps. When the Lord turned back the captivity of Zion, we became like those who are consoled.

Nzembo ya mobembo mpo na kokende na Tempelo ya Yawe. Tango Yawe azongisaki bato ya Siona longwa na bowumbu, tozalaki lokola bato oyo bazali kolota ndoto.

2 Then our mouth was filled with gladness and our tongue with exultation. Then they will say among the nations: “The Lord has done great things for them.”

Boye, tozalaki koganga mpe koyemba na esengo. Bongo, maloba oyo ekomaki kolobama kati na bikolo: « Yawe asaleli bango makambo minene! »

3 The Lord has done great things for us. We have become joyful.

Solo, Yawe asaleli biso makambo minene, mpe tozali kosepela.

4 Convert our captivity, O Lord, like a torrent in the south.

Yawe, yaka kobongisa makambo na biso ndenge kaka otondisaka lisusu miluka ya Negevi.

5 Those who sow in tears shall reap in exultation.

Bato oyo balonaka na mpinzoli babukaka na banzembo ya esengo.

6 When departing, they went forth and wept, sowing their seeds. But when returning, they will arrive with exultation, carrying their sheaves.

Moto oyo akendaka na kolela, tango amemi milona na ye, azongaka na esengo wana amemi maboke na ye.
