BSB BSB: Then our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with shouts of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”
3 DRA The Lord hath done great things for us: we are become joyful. BSB BSB: The LORD has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.
4 DRA Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as a stream in the south. BSB BSB: Restore our captives, O LORD, like streams in the Negev.
5 DRA They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. BSB BSB: Those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.
