A Song of Ascents.
[1] When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion,we were like those who dream.
[2] Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
and our tongue with singing.
Then they said among the nations,
“Yahweh has done great things for them.”
[3] Yahweh has done great things for us,
and we are glad.
[4] Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh,
like the streams in the Negev.
[5] Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.
[6] He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing,
will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.
King James Version
A Song H7892 of degrees. H4609
[1] When the Lord H3068 turned again H7725 H853 the captivity H7870 of Zion, H6726§We were like them that dream. H2492
[2] Then H227 was our mouth H6310 filled H4390 with laughter, H7814
And our tongue H3956 with singing: H7440
Then H227 said H559 they among the heathen, H1471
The Lord H3068 hath done H6213 great things H1431 for them.§
[3] The Lord H3068 hath done H6213 great things H1431 for us;
Whereof we are glad. H8056
[4] Turn again H7725 our captivity, H7622 H7622 O Lord, H3068
As the streams H650 in the south. H5045
[5] They that sow H2232 in tears H1832
Shall reap H7114 in joy. H7440§
[6] He that goeth H3212 forth H1980 and weepeth, H1058 bearing H5375 precious H4901 seed, H2233§
Shall doubtless H935 come H935 again with rejoicing, H7440 bringing H5375 his sheaves H485 with him.
