Psalms 126

1 A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that dream.

Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Bwana alipowarejeza mateka Sayuni, tulikuwa kama watu walioota ndoto.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.'

Vinywa vyetu vilijaa kicheko, ndimi zetu zilijaa nyimbo za shangwe. Ndipo iliposemwa miongoni mwa mataifa, “Bwana amewatendea mambo makuu.”

3 The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.

Bwana ametutendea mambo makuu, nasi tumejaa furaha.

4 Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.

Ee Bwana, turejeshee watu wetu waliotekwa, kama vijito katika Negebu.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Wapandao kwa machozi watavuna kwa nyimbo za shangwe.

6 Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.

Yeye azichukuaye mbegu zake kwenda kupanda, huku akilia, atarudi kwa nyimbo za shangwe, akichukua miganda ya mavuno yake.
