The people of God rejoice at their delivery from captivity.

In convertendo.
[1] A gradual canticle. When the Lord brought back the captivity of Sion, we became like men comforted. •
[2] Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy. Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things for them. •
[3] The Lord hath done great things for us: we are become joyful.
[4] Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as a stream in the south. •
[5] They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. •
[6] Going they went and wept, casting their seeds. •
[7] But coming they shall come with joyfulness, carrying their sheaves.
