Psalms 126

1 Orin fún ìgòkè. Nígbà tí Olúwa mú ìkólọ Sioni padà, àwa dàbí ẹni tí ó ń lá àlá.

A Song of degrees. When Jehovah turned the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

2 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.

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with rejoicing: then said they among the nations, Jehovah hath done great things for them.

3 Olúwa ṣe ohun ńlá fún wa; nítorí náà àwa ń yọ̀.

Jehovah hath done great things for us; [and] we are joyful.

4 Olúwa mú ìkólọ wa padà, bí ìṣàn omi ní gúúsù.

Turn our captivity, O Jehovah, as the streams in the south.

5 Àwọn tí ń fi omijé fún irúgbìn yóò fi ayọ̀ ka.

They that sow in tears shall reap with rejoicing:

6 Ẹni tí ń fi ẹkún rìn lọ, tí ó sì gbé irúgbìn lọ́wọ́, lóòtítọ́, yóò fi ayọ̀ padà wá, yóò sì ru ìtí rẹ̀.

He goeth forth and weepeth, bearing seed for scattering; he cometh again with rejoicing, bearing his sheaves.
