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. But coming they shall come with joyfulness, carrying their sheaves.
