- rejoice:
- Heb. are girded with joy, "Which by his strengthª setteth fastª° the mountains;ª [being] girdedª° with power:ª" {Psa 65:6} + "For¹ [as] the heavensª are higherª° than the earth,ª¹ so¹ are my ways² higherª°¹ than your ways,ª¹ and my thoughtsª than your thoughts.ª¹ ... Instead¹ of the thornª shall come upª° the fir tree,ª and instead¹ of the brierª shall come upª° the myrtle tree:ª and it shall be¹ to the LORDª for a name,ª for an everlastingª signª [that] shall not¹ be cut off.ª°" {Isa 55:9-13} + "I will greatly²° rejoiceª° in the LORD,ª my soulª shall be joyfulª° in my God;ª for¹ he hath clothedª° me with the garmentsª of salvation,ª he hath coveredª° me with the robeª of righteousness,ª as a bridegroomª deckethª° [himself] with ornaments,ª and as a brideª adornethª° [herself] with her jewels.ª ... For¹ as the earthª bringeth forthª° her bud,ª and as the gardenª causeth the things that are sownª in it to spring forth;ª° so¹ the Lordª GODª will cause righteousnessª and praiseª to spring forthª° before¹ all¹ the nations.ª" {Isa 61:10-11}
