Commentary on Psalms - Volume 5

1When bring back did Jehovah the captivity of Zion, We were like those that dream.

2Now filled with laughter shall be our mouth, And our tongue with exultation: Now shall they say among the heathen, “Great things Jehovah hath done for them.”

3Great things Jehovah hath done for us, Whereof we have been made glad.

4Bring back, O Jehovah! our captivity, As rivers in the South.

5They who sow in tears In exultation shall reap.

6Going forth, he shall go and weep, Carrying the price of the seed: Returning he shall return with exultation, Bearing his sheaves.
