| 1 | WHEN the LORD brought back the people of Zion from captivity, we were like those that rejoice. | 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 heathen, The LORD has done great things for them. | 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 has done great things for us, whereof we are joyful. | 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 again our captivity, O LORD, like the streams in the south. | 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 | He who goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him. | 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. | |
