< Nnwom 126 >

1 Ɔsoroforɔ dwom. Ɛberɛ a Awurade de Sion firi nnommum sane baeɛ no, yɛyɛɛ sɛ nnipa a wɔasoso adaeɛ.
A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that dream.
2 Sereɛ hyɛɛ yɛn anomu ma, anigyeɛ nnwom yɛɛ yɛn tɛkrɛma so ma. Na wɔkaa wɔ amanaman no mu sɛ, “Awurade ayɛ nneɛma akɛseɛ ama wɔn.”
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 Awurade ayɛ nneɛma akɛseɛ ama yɛn na anigyeɛ ahyɛ yɛn ma.
The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.
4 Ao Awurade, sane fa yɛn ahonya ma yɛn, te sɛ nsuwa nsuwa a ɛwɔ Negeb no.
Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.
5 Wɔn a wɔdua no nisuo mu no de anigyeɛ nnwom bɛtwa.
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 Deɛ ɔde osu firi adie na ɔsoa aba kɔdua no, ɔde anigyeɛ nnwom bɛsane aba a ɔso nnɔbaeɛ afiafi.
Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
