[1]When the lord brought back the captivity of Sion, we became like men comforted.[2]Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy. Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things for them.[3]The Lord hath done great things for us: we are become joyful.[4]Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as a stream in the south.[5]They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.[6]Going they went and wept, casting their seeds.[7]But coming they shall come with joyfulness, carrying their sheaves.
