The captives of Zion restored

1
A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. When ye Lord brought againe the captiuitie of Zion, we were like them that dreame.
2
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
The Lord hath done great things for vs, whereof we reioyce.
4
O Lord, bring againe our captiuitie, as the riuers in the South.
5
They that sowe in teares, shall reape in ioy.
6
They went weeping and caried precious seede: but they shall returne with ioye and bring their sheaues.

The captives of Zion restored

1
When the LORD brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.
2
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
The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.
4
Restore our fortunes again, LORD, like the streams in the Negev.
5
Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
6
He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
