1 A song of ascents.When the Lord restored the captives of Zion,we thought we were dreaming.
2 Then our mouths were filled with laughter;our tongues sang for joy.Then it was said among the nations,“The Lord had done great things for them.”
3 The Lord has done great things for us;Oh, how happy we were!
4 Restore our captives, Lord,like the dry stream beds of the Negeb.
5 Those who sow in tearswill reap with cries of joy.
