6 He who goes out weeping,
bearing the seed for sowing,
shall come home with shouts of joy,
bringing his sheaves with him.

Isaiah 17:10-11

10 For ^ayou have forgotten the God of your salvation
and have not remembered the ^bRock of your refuge;
therefore, though you plant pleasant plants
and sow the vine-branch of a stranger,
11 though you make them grow ^{▼▼Or though you carefully fence them} on the day that you plant them,
and make them blossom in the morning that you sow,
yet the harvest will flee away ^{▼▼Or will be a heap}
in a day of grief and incurable pain.

Hosea 8:7

7 For ^ethey sow the wind,
and they shall reap the whirlwind.
The standing grain has no heads;
it shall yield no flour;
if it were to yield,
^fstrangers would devour it.

Galatians 6:8

8 For ^gthe one who sows to his own flesh ^hwill from the flesh reap corruption, but ⁱthe one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
