1 When the Lord brought the prisoners back to Jerusalem,it seemed as if we were dreaming.
2 Then we were filled with laughter,and we sang happy songs.Then the other nations said,“The Lord has done great things for them.”
3 The Lord has done great things for us,and we are very glad.
4 Lord, return our prisoners again,as you bring streams to the desert.
5 Those who cry as they plant cropswill sing at harvest time.
6 Those who cryas they carry out the seedswill return singingand carrying bundles of grain.
