Psalm 87:3The Passion TranslationSo many glorious things have been proclaimed over Zion, God’s holy city! Pause in his presence See the chapter |
to strengthen those crushed by despair who mourn in Zion— to give them a beautiful bouquet in the place of ashes, the oil of bliss instead of tears, and the mantle of joyous praise instead of the spirit of heaviness. Because of this, they will be known as Mighty Oaks of Righteousness, planted by Yahweh as a living display of his glory.
