- a good day:
- "Then he saidª° unto them, Go¹ your way,²° eatª° the fat,ª and drinkª° the sweet,ª and sendª° portionsª unto them for whom nothing¹ is prepared:ª° for¹ [this] dayª [is] holyª unto our Lord:ª neither¹ be ye sorry;ª° for¹ the joyª of the LORDª is your strength.ª ... And all¹ the peopleª went¹ their way²° to eat,ª° and to drink,ª° and to sendª° portions,ª and to makeª° greatª mirth,ª because¹ they had understoodª° the wordsª that¹ were declaredª° unto them." {Neh 8:10-12} + "Therefore¹¹ the Jewsª of the villages,ª that dweltª° in the unwalledª towns,ª madeª°¹ the fourteenthªª dayª of the monthª Adarª [a day of] gladnessª and feasting,ª and a goodª day,ª and of sendingª portionsª oneª to another.ª" {Est 9:19} + "Giveª° a portionª to seven,ª and also¹ to eight;ª for¹ thou knowestª° not¹ what¹ evilª shall be¹ upon¹ the earth.ª" {Ecc 11:2} + "But¹ rather² giveª° almsª of such things as ye have;ª° and,ª behold,ª° all thingsª areª° cleanª unto you.ª" {Lke 11:41} + "Thenª said¹ he²° alsoª to him that badeª° him,ª Whenª thou makestª° a dinnerª orª a supper,ª callª° notª thyª friends,ª norª thyª brethren,ª neitherª thyª kinsmen,ª norª [thy] richª neighbours;ª lestª theyª alsoª bid²° thee² again,ª°¹ andª a recompenceª be madeª° thee.ª ... Andª thou shalt beª° blessed;ª forª they cannotªª° recompenseª° thee:ª forª thouª shalt be recompensedª° atª the¹ resurrectionª of the¹ just.ª" {Lke 14:12-14}
