1
When the LORD shall turn again the captivity of Zion, we shall be like those that dream.
2
Then our mouth shall be filled with laughter and our tongue with singing; then they shall say among the Gentiles, The LORD has done great things with them.
3
The LORD has done great things with us, of which we shall be glad.
4 Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south. 5 Those that sow with tears shall reap with joy. 6 He that goes forth and weeps, bearing the precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
