Thematic Bible: Joy of, brief


Thematic Bible




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

And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them; I withheld not 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.

And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither joyful noise: no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage'shout to cease.

Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
