Thematic Bible: Joy joy


Thematic Bible




that the triumphing of the wicked is short, the joy of the godless but for a moment?

Whatever my eyes desired, I didn't keep from them. I didn't withhold my heart from any joy, for my heart rejoiced because of all my labor, and this was my portion from all my labor.

For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool. This also is vanity.

Gladness is taken away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there will be no singing, neither joyful noise. Nobody will tread out wine in the presses. I have made the shouting stop.

Lament, mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to gloom.
