1 When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion,

We were like them that dream.

2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter,

And our tongue with singing:

Then said they among the heathen,

The Lord hath done great things for them.

3 The Lord hath done great things for us;

Whereof we are glad.

4 Turn again our captivity, O Lord,

As the streams in the south.

5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed,

Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
