Verse YLT Young's Literal Translation KJV King James Version

A Song of the Ascents. In Jehovah's turning back `to' the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers .

When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream .

Then filled ` with ' laughter is our mouth , And our tongue ` with ' singing , Then do they say among nations , `Jehovah did great things with these . '

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 .

Jehovah did great things with us , We have been joyful .

The LORD hath done great things for us ; whereof we are glad .

Turn again , O Jehovah, `to' our captivity, As streams in the south.

Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south.

Those sowing in tears , with singing do reap ,

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed, Surely cometh in with singing , bearing his sheaves !

He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing , bringing his sheaves with him.
