That shall not fill the reaper’s hand, Nor the sheaves fill the binder’s bosom.
Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; Nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
With which the mower fills not his hand, nor the binder of sheaves his bosom–
Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, Nor he that bindeth sheaves, his bosom:
which won’t fill the reaper’s hand or fill the harvester’s arms.
For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him there is bountiful redemption.
Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.
He who goes on and weeps, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall indeed come in with rejoicing, Bearing his sheaves.
“For they sow the wind, and reap the whirlwind. The stalk has no bud, it yields no grain. If it does yield, strangers swallow it up.
Because he who sows to his own flesh shall reap corruption from the flesh, but he who sows to the Spirit shall reap everlasting life from the Spirit.
