- In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider; yes, God has made the one side by side with the other, to the end that man should not find out anything after him.
- I have no greater joy than this: to hear about my children walking in truth.
- Charge those who are rich in this present age that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy.
- I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice, and to do good as long as they live. Also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy good in all his labor, is the gift of God.
- I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies,
as much as in all riches. - The father of the righteous has great joy.
Whoever fathers a wise child delights in him. - As sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing and yet possessing all things.
- Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared, for today is holy to our Lord. Don’t be grieved, for the joy of Yahweh is your strength.”

- The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people.”
- My son, if your heart is wise,
then my heart will be glad, even mine. - But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out and leap like calves of the stall.
- Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart.
Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes. - Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.
- Deceit is in the heart of those who plot evil,
but joy comes to the promoters of peace. - Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth,
before the evil days come, and the years draw near,
when you will say, “I have no pleasure in them.” - I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.
- Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.
- Every man also to whom God has given riches and wealth, and has given him power to eat of it, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor—this is the gift of God.
- The prospect of the righteous is joy,
but the hope of the wicked will perish. - The vine has dried up, and the fig tree withered—
the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree,
even all of the trees of the field are withered;
for joy has withered away from the sons of men. - A wise son makes a glad father;
but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.
