Tobit 13:12-14

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹² Cursed are all who reject you
    and all who blaspheme you;
cursed are all who hate you^[a]
    and all who speak a harsh word against you;
cursed are all who conquer you
    and pull down your walls,
all who overthrow your towers
    and set your homes on fire.
    But blessed forever will be all who build you up.^[b](A)
13 Rejoice,^[c] then, and exult over the children of the righteous,
    for they will all be gathered together
    and will bless the Lord of the ages.^(B)
14 Happy will be those who love you,
    and happy are those who will rejoice in your peace.
Happy also all people who grieve with you
    because of your afflictions,
for they will rejoice with you
    and witness all your joy forever.^(C)
