King James Version with Apocrypha
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
1A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that dream.
2Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.
2Then 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.'
3The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
3The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.
4Turn again our captivity, O LORD , as the streams in the south.
4Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.
5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
5They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him .
6Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
