The captives of Zion restored

1
A song of ascents. When Yahweh restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream.
2
Then our mouths were filled with laughter and our tongues with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh has done great things for them.”
3
Yahweh did great things for us; how glad we were!
4
Restore our fortunes, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev.
5
Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.
6
He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will return again with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

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.
