And in that day you shall say, O Jehovah, I will praise You; though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.

When Mordecai learned all that had happened, he tore his clothes and put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried out with a loud and bitter cry.

And in every province where the king's command and decree arrived, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.

So Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of violet and white, with a great crown of gold and a garment of fine linen and purple; and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad.

as the days on which the Jews had rest from their enemies, as the month which was turned from sorrow to joy for them, and from mourning to a good day; that they should make them days of feasting and joy, of sending portions to one another and gifts to the needy.

You have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have loosened my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness,

When I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the time of love; so I spread the edge of My garment over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine, declares the Lord Jehovah.

I clothed you in embroidered cloth and gave you sandals of badger skin; I clothed you with fine linen and covered you with silk.

And I put a ring in your nose, earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown upon your head.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over.

You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your fellows.

and wine that gladdens the heart of man, oil to make his face shine, and bread which strengthens man's heart.

Let your garments always be white; and let your head lack no ointment.

Truly, truly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will become joy.

I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He has clothed me with the garment of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness like a bridegroom adorns himself with ornaments, and like a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

And I said, Let them set a clean turban on his head. And they set a clean turban on his head and clothed him with garments. And the Angel of Jehovah stood by.

But the father said to his servants, Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.

After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one was able to number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

And all the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and did homage to God,

Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, Who are these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?

Your people also shall all be righteous; they shall inherit the land forever, the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, so that I may be glorified.

The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be fat and luxuriant;

Blessed is the man who trusts in Jehovah, and Jehovah is his refuge.

For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters; it sends out its roots by the river, and it shall not fear when the heat comes, but its foliage shall be green; and he is not anxious in the year of drought, nor will it cease from yielding fruit.

Even so, every good tree produces excellent fruit, but a corrupt tree produces evil fruit.

Every tree that does not produce excellent fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

Let your light so shine before men, so that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven.

In this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; thus you will be My disciples.

For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

being filled with the fruits of righteousness through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you is believed.

But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of His possession, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

Be hospitable to one another without murmuring.

If anyone speaks, let him speak as the words of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and might forever and ever. Amen.
