< Psalms 126 >
1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:
Orin fún ìgòkè. Nígbà tí Olúwa mú ìkólọ Sioni padà, àwa dàbí ẹni tí ó ń lá àlá.
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!
Nígbà náà ni ẹnu wa kún fún ẹ̀rín, àti ahọ́n wa kọ orin; nígbà náà ni wọ́n wí nínú àwọn kèfèrí pé, Olúwa ṣe ohun ńlá fún wọn.
3 Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!
Olúwa ṣe ohun ńlá fún wa; nítorí náà àwa ń yọ̀.
4 Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.
Olúwa mú ìkólọ wa padà, bí ìṣàn omi ní gúúsù.
5 They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:
Àwọn tí ń fi omijé fún irúgbìn yóò fi ayọ̀ ka.
6 He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.
Ẹni tí ń fi ẹkún rìn lọ, tí ó sì gbé irúgbìn lọ́wọ́, lóòtítọ́, yóò fi ayọ̀ padà wá, yóò sì ru ìtí rẹ̀.
