Zaburi 126

1 Bwana alipowarejesha mateka wa Sayuni, tulikuwa kama waotao ndoto.

A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.

2 Vinywa vyetu vilijawa na vicheko na ndimi zetu zilijawa na kuimba. Kisha wakasema kati ya mataifa, “Yahwe amewatendea mambo makuu.”

Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”

3 Yahwe alitufanyia mambo makuu; ni furaha gani tuliyokuwa nayo!

The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.

4 Ee Yahwe, uwarejeshe mateka wetu, kama vijito vya kusini.

Restore our fortunes again, LORD, like the streams in the Negev.

5 Wale wapandao kwa machozi watavuna kwa kelele za furaha.

Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

6 Yeye aendaye akilia, akibeba mbegu kwa ajili a kupanda, atarudi tena kwa kelele za furaha, akileta miganda yake.

He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
