Psalms 126

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. In YHWH’s turning back [to] the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.

Nkunga wunyimbudulu mu nzila yi kuendila ku nzo Yave. Mu thangu Yave kavutula batu bakangama ku Sioni, tuba banga batu banlota zindozi.

2 Then our mouth is filled [with] laughter, And our tongue [with] singing, Then they say among nations, “YHWH did great things with these.”

Miunu mieto miba miwala masevo; ludimi lueto minkunga mi khini. Buna batuba muidi makanda ti: “Yave wuba vangidi mambu manneni.”

3 YHWH did great things with us, We have been joyful.

Yave wutuvangidi mambu manneni; ayi khini yitufulukidi.

4 Turn again, O YHWH, [to] our captivity, As streams in the south.

Vutula diaka kimvuama kieto, a Yave; banga bina bimila bi minlangu ku Nengevi.

5 Those sowing in tears, reap with singing,

Bobo beti kuna ayi matsuela mu meso, bela vedila mu minkunga mi khini.

6 Whoever goes on and weeps, Carrying the basket of seed, Surely comes in with singing, carrying his sheaves!

Wuntotukanga ku nganda ayi matsuela mu meso; wunatanga mbongo mu kuna; weti vutuka ayi minkunga mi khini mu natanga mimvumba mi biti.
