Psalms 126

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

Ingoma yemiqanso. Kwathi lapho uThixo ebuyisa izithunjwa eZiyoni, sasinjengabantu abaphuphayo.

2 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.

Imilomo yethu yayigcwele ngohleko, lezindimi zethu zicula izingoma zentokozo. Basebesithi abezizwe, “UThixo ubenzele izinto ezimangalisayo.”

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

UThixo usenzele izinto ezimangalisayo, ngakho siyathokoza kakhulu.

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

Buyisa ukuphumelela kwethu, Oh Thixo, njengemifula eseNegebi.

5 They that sowe in teares, shall reape in ioy.

Labo abahlanyela ngezinyembezi bazavuna ngezingoma zentokozo.

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

Lowo ophuma ekhala, ethwele inhlanyelo ukuba ayehlanyela uzabuya ngezingoma zentokozo, ethwele izinyanda.
