Sabuurradii 126

1 Markii Rabbigu soo celiyey maxaabiistii Siyoon, Waxaynu noqonnay sida kuwa riyooda.

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. In YHWH’s turning back [to] the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.

2 Markaasaa afkeenna waxaa ka buuxsamay qosol, Carrabkeennana gabay, Kolkaasaa quruumaha waxaa laga dhex yidhi, Rabbigu waxyaalo waaweyn ayuu iyaga u sameeyey.

Then our mouth is filled [with] laughter, And our tongue [with] singing, Then they say among nations, “YHWH did great things with these.”

3 Rabbigu wuxuu inoo sameeyey waxyaalo waaweyn, Oo aynu ku faraxsan nahay.

YHWH did great things with us, We have been joyful.

4 Rabbiyow, maxaabiisnimada mar kale nooga soo celi Sida durdurrada koonfureed.

Turn again, O YHWH, [to] our captivity, As streams in the south.

5 Kuwa ilmada wax ku abuurtaa, farxad bay ku goosan doonaan.

Those sowing in tears, reap with singing,

6 Kii iska taga isagoo ooyaya oo abuurkiisa sita, Wuxuu soo noqon doonaa isagoo faraxsan oo xidhmooyinkiisa sita.

Whoever goes on and weeps, Carrying the basket of seed, Surely comes in with singing, carrying his sheaves!
