"Unending joy will crown their heads.... And grief and sighing will flee away." - Isaiah 35:10
~~
Bible Highlight: in combination with specific promise of the resurrection (eg. John 5:28,29), this can help comfort people who are grieving, to help them/us picture seeing their loved on again, and be assured of how this horrible grief they feel every day will be permanently lifted.
Isaiah 35:10 - "Those redeemed by Jehovah will return and come to Zion with a joyful cry. Unending joy will crown their heads. Exultation and rejoicing will be theirs, And grief and sighing will flee away."
John 5:28,29 - "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment."
