Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yes, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
Glory you in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
Then will I go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy: yes, on the harp will I praise you, O God my God.
Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
Gird yourselves, and lament, you priests: howl, you ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, you ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withheld from the house of your God.
