1 The Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father; but a foolish son is the grief of his mother.
10 as grieved, but always rejoicing; as poor, but enriching many; as having nothing, and possessing all things.
15 Rejoice with those that rejoice, weep with those that weep.
9 Lord, all my desire is before thee, and my sighing is not hid from thee.
17 {The righteous} cry, and Jehovah heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
18 Jehovah is nigh to those that are of a broken heart, and saveth them that are of a contrite spirit.
16 They shall not hunger any more, neither shall they thirst any more, nor shall the sun at all fall on them, nor any burning heat;
17 because the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall shepherd them, and shall lead them to fountains of waters of life, and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
18 For in much wisdom is much vexation, and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
12 Yet even now, saith Jehovah, turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning;
20 And Job rose up, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down on the ground, and worshipped;
21 and he said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: Jehovah gave, and Jehovah hath taken away; blessed be the name of Jehovah!
12 The vine is dried up, and the fig-tree languisheth; the pomegranate-tree, the palm also and the apple-tree; all the trees of the field are withered, yea, joy is withered away from the children of men.
3 And I heard a loud voice out of the heaven, saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God {is} with men, and he shall tabernacle with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, their God.
4 And he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall not exist any more, nor grief, nor cry, nor distress shall exist any more, for the former things have passed away.
5 Return, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears; behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up to the house of Jehovah;
8 Jehovah openeth {the eyes of} the blind; Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous;
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with which ye have been sealed for {the} day of redemption.
4 Blessed they that mourn, for *they* shall be comforted.
8 And Jehovah, he it is that goeth before thee: he will be with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.
10 Then remove discontent from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh; for childhood and youth are vanity.
5 For a moment {is passed} in his anger, a life in his favour; at even weeping cometh for the night, and at morn there is rejoicing.
7 having cast all your care upon him, for he cares about you.
