For it is the day of the LORD's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.
Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;
I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.
For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
