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 steams 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.
