Psalms 126

1 “A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” When the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like them that dream.

Faarfannaa ol baʼuu. Yeroo Waaqayyo warra boojiʼamanii turan gara Xiyoonitti deebisetti, nu akka warra abjuu abjootanii taane.

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 for them!”

Afaan keenya kolfaan, arrabni keenya immoo faarfannaa gammachuutiin guutame. Kana irratti saboota gidduutti, “Waaqayyo waan guddaa isaaniif godheera” jedhame.

3 Yea, the LORD hath done great things for us, For which we are glad.

Waaqayyo waan guddaa nuuf godhe; nus ni gammanne.

4 Bring back, O LORD! our captivity, Like streams in the South!

Yaa Waaqayyo, akkuma lagoota Negeeb, boojuu keenya nuu deebisi.

5 They who sow in tears Shall reap in joy.

Warri imimmaaniin facaasan, faarfannaa gammachuutiin ni haammatu.

6 Yea, he goeth forth weeping, bearing his seed; He shall surely come back rejoicing, bearing his sheaves.

Namni sanyii facaafamu baadhatee booʼaa gad baʼu, bissii isaa baadhatee faarfannaa gammachuu faarfachaa deebiʼa.
