Zaburi 126

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

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

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

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.'

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

The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.

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

Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.

5 Wale wapandao kwa machozi watavuna kwa kelele za furaha.

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

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

Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
