< Psalms 126 >
1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:
Nkunga wunyimbudulu mu nzila yi kuendila ku nzo Yave. Mu thangu Yave kavutula batu bakangama ku Sioni, tuba banga batu banlota zindozi.
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!
Miunu mieto miba miwala masevo; ludimi lueto minkunga mi khini. Buna batuba muidi makanda ti: “Yave wuba vangidi mambu manneni.”
3 Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!
Yave wutuvangidi mambu manneni; ayi khini yitufulukidi.
4 Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.
Vutula diaka kimvuama kieto, a Yave; banga bina bimila bi minlangu ku Nengevi.
5 They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:
Bobo beti kuna ayi matsuela mu meso, bela vedila mu minkunga mi khini.
6 He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.
Wuntotukanga ku nganda ayi matsuela mu meso; wunatanga mbongo mu kuna; weti vutuka ayi minkunga mi khini mu natanga mimvumba mi biti.
