The captives of Zion restored

1
A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. When ye Lord brought againe the captiuitie of Zion, we were like them that dreame.
2
Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with ioye: then sayd they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.
3
The Lord hath done great things for vs, whereof we reioyce.
4
O Lord, bring againe our captiuitie, as the riuers in the South.
5
They that sowe in teares, shall reape in ioy.
6
They went weeping and caried precious seede: but they shall returne with ioye and bring their sheaues.
