Israel, Prophecies Concerning: Captivity of Nehemiah is Commissioned to Lead the Remainder of the Captivity

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. You showed favor to Your land, O LORD; You restored Jacob from captivity.

A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song. He has founded His city on the holy mountains.

Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.

A song of ascents. When the LORD restored the captives of Zion, we were like dreamers.
