1
When the Lord brought back the captives [who returned] to Zion, we were like those who dream [it seemed so unreal]. ⓐ
2
Then were our mouths filled with laughter, and our tongues 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! We are glad!
4
Turn to freedom our captivity and restore our fortunes, O Lord, as the streams in the South (the Negeb) [are restored by the torrents].
5
They who sow in tears shall reap in joy and singing.
6
He who goes forth bearing seed and weeping [at needing his precious supply of grain for sowing] shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
