2 Then our mouths were filled with laughter and our tongues with joyful songs. Then the nations said, "The LORD has done spectacular things for them."

3 The LORD has done spectacular things for us. We are overjoyed.

4 Restore our fortunes, O LORD, as you restore streams [to dry riverbeds] in the Negev.
