< Psalms 126 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] When the LORD brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
I A Iehova i hoihoi mai ai i ka pio ana o Ziona, Like no kakou me ka poe moe uhane.
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."
Alaila, piha no ko kakou waha i ka akaaka, A me ko kakou alelo i ka hauoli; Alaila, olelo no lakou iwaena o ko na aina e, Nani na mea a Iehova i hana mai ai no lakou la.
3 The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.
Ua nani no na mea a Iehova i hana mai ai no kakou; A ua lealea kakou malaila.
4 Restore our fortunes again, LORD, like the streams in the Negev.
E Iehova, e hoihoi oe i ko makou pio ana, E like me na kahawai, ma ke kukuluhema.
5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
O ka poe lulu me na waimaka, E hoiliili lakou me ka hauoli.
6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
He oiaio, o ka mea hele, a uwe, I kona lawe ana i ka hua e lulu ai, He oiaio no, e hoi mai oia me ka hauoli, E amo pu ana i kona mau pua.
