Tears

Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types

Psalm 42:3 (b) Some people feed on their sorrows constantly and never seem to be satisfied unless they are grieving over past tragedies. The Lord intends for us to drink the Water of Life, and not be drinking tears of sorrow.

Psalm 80:5 (b) This indicates that GOD would give to Israel an abundance of sorrow, grief and pain instead of the blessings of good crops, with peace and plenty.
