| 1 | A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, We were like unto them that dream. | When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. | A song of ascents. When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dreamed. | |
| 2 | Then was our mouth filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing; Then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.' | Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.” | Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.” | |
| 3 | The LORD hath done great things with us; We are rejoiced. | The LORD has done great things for us; we are glad. | The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy. | |
| 4 | Turn our captivity, O LORD, As the streams in the dry land. | Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like streams in the Negeb! | Restore our fortunes, LORD, like streams in the Negev. | |
| 5 | They that sow in tears Shall reap in joy. | Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy! | Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy. | |
| 6 | Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, He shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves. | He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him. | Those who go out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them. | |
