εὐφραίνω

And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:

For this my son was dead, and is alive again;2532 he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.

And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?

For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.

And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.
