Psalms 126

1 [A Song of Ascents.] When YHWH brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.

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

2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "YHWH has done great things for them."

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

3 YHWH has done great things for us, and we are glad.

Bwana ametutendea mambo makuu, nasi tumejaa furaha.

4 Restore our fortunes again, YHWH, like the streams in the Negev.

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

5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

Wapandao kwa machozi watavuna kwa nyimbo za shangwe.

6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.

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