1 When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones. 2 Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say among the Gentiles, 3 the Lord has done great things among them. the Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.
4 Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the streams in the south. 5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves with them.
