Psalms 126

1 A Song of degrees. When Jehovah turned the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

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

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with rejoicing: then said they among the nations, Jehovah hath done great things for them.

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

3 Jehovah hath done great things for us; [and] we are joyful.

Yehova watichitira zinthu zazikulu, ndipo tadzazidwa ndi chimwemwe.

4 Turn our captivity, O Jehovah, as the streams in the south.

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

5 They that sow in tears shall reap with rejoicing:

Iwo amene amafesa akulira, adzakolola akuyimba nyimbo zachimwemwe.

6 He goeth forth and weepeth, bearing seed for scattering; he cometh again with rejoicing, bearing his sheaves.

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