Psalms 126

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

Bwana alipowarejesha mateka wa Sayuni, tulikuwa kama waotao 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 vilijawa na vicheko na ndimi zetu zilijawa na kuimba. Kisha wakasema kati ya mataifa, “Yahwe amewatendea mambo makuu.”

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

Yahwe alitufanyia mambo makuu; ni furaha gani tuliyokuwa nayo!

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

Ee Yahwe, uwarejeshe mateka wetu, kama vijito vya kusini.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Wale wapandao kwa machozi watavuna kwa kelele za furaha.

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

Yeye aendaye akilia, akibeba mbegu kwa ajili a kupanda, atarudi tena kwa kelele za furaha, akileta miganda yake.
