Basil of Caesarea, on Ps 125:5
Basil of Caesarea · c. A.D. 330–379
Ps 125:5 · Douay-Rheims
“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.”
On this verse:
“"Blessed are they who weep, for they shall laugh." They, therefore, who spend the days of their life, which is already at its consummation and declining toward its setting, in weeping for their sins, these will be glad in that true morning that is approaching. "They that sow in tears shall reap in joy," of course, in the future.”
