Cup : Of Joy

So that the people could not discern the noise of the shout Of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard afar off.

• Way

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness Of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices Of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice Of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

Upon the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, upon all the houses Of joy in the joyous city:

• Comforting

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil Of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

And it shall be to me a name Of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.

• Sacrifices

The voice Of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.

Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full Of joy with thy countenance.
