He who goes to and fro weeping, carrying his bag of seed,
Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

If you would direct your heart right
And spread out your hand to Him,

For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.

The people who walk in darkness
Will see a great light;
Those who live in a dark land,
The light will shine on them.

To grant those who mourn in Zion,
Giving them a garland instead of ashes,
The oil of gladness instead of mourning,
The mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting.
So they will be called oaks of righteousness,
The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.

“In those days and at that time,” declares the Lord, “the sons of Israel will come, both they and the sons of Judah as well; they will go along weeping as they go, and it will be the Lord their God they will seek.

I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight;

And he called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas,

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.

For this reason, they are before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them.
