Psalms 126

1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:

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

2 Then, was our mouth, filled with laughter, and our tongue with a shout of triumph, —Then, said they among the nations, Yahweh, hath done great things, with these!

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

3 Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!

Bwana ametutendea mambo makuu, nasi tumejaa furaha.

4 Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.

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

5 They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:

Wapandao kwa machozi watavuna kwa nyimbo za shangwe.

6 He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.

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