A Song
of degrees.
When the LORD
turned again
the captivity
of Zion,
we were like them that dream.
Then 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.
The LORD
hath done
great things
for us; whereof we are glad.
Turn again
our captivity,
O LORD,
as the streams
in the south.

They that sow
in tears
shall reap
in joy.
He that goeth
forth
and weepeth,
bearing
precious
seed,
shall doubtless
come
again with rejoicing,
bringing
his sheaves
with him.
