A Song{H7892} of degrees{H4609}. When the LORD{H3068} turned again{H7725}{(H8800)} the captivity{H7870} of Zion{H6726}, we were like them that dream{H2492}{(H8802)}.

Then was our mouth{H6310} filled{H4390}{(H8735)} with laughter{H7814}, and our tongue{H3956} with singing{H7440}: then said{H559}{(H8799)} they among the heathen{H1471}, The LORD{H3068} hath done{H6213}{(H8800)} great things{H1431}{(H8689)} for them.

The LORD{H3068} hath done{H6213}{(H8800)} great things{H1431}{(H8689)} for us; whereof we are glad{H8056}.

Turn again{H7725}{(H8798)} our captivity{H7622}{(H8675)}{H7622}, O LORD{H3068}, as the streams{H650} in the south{H5045}.

They that sow{H2232}{(H8802)} in tears{H1832} shall reap{H7114}{(H8799)} in joy{H7440}.

He that goeth{H3212}{(H8799)} forth{H1980}{(H8800)} and weepeth{H1058}{(H8800)}, bearing{H5375}{(H8802)} precious{H4901} seed{H2233}, shall doubtless{H935}{(H8800)} come{H935}{(H8799)} again with rejoicing{H7440}, bringing{H5375}{(H8802)} his sheaves{H485} with him.
