Psalms 126

1 A Song of Degrees. When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones.

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 was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say among the Gentiles,

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 among them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.

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

4 Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the steams in the south.

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

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Bato oyo balonaka na mpinzoli babukaka na banzembo ya esengo.

6 They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves [with them].

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