| 1 | A Song of the Ascents. In Jehovah's turning back [to] the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers. |
| 2 | Then filled [with] laughter is our mouth, And our tongue [with] singing, Then do they say among nations, 'Jehovah did great things with these.' |
| 3 | Jehovah did great things with us, We have been joyful. |
| 4 | Turn again, O Jehovah, [to] our captivity, As streams in the south. |
| 5 | Those sowing in tears, with singing do reap, |
| 6 | Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed, Surely cometh in with singing, bearing his sheaves! |
