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, or Psalme of David. When ye Lord brought againe the captiuitie of Zion, we were like them that dreame.

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 ioye: then sayd they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.

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

The Lord hath done great things for vs, whereof we reioyce.

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

O Lord, bring againe our captiuitie, as the riuers in the South.

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

They that sowe in teares, shall reape in ioy.

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.

They went weeping and caried precious seede: but they shall returne with ioye and bring their sheaues.
