Paradise and robes of silk. Reclining there upon soft couches, they
shall feel neither the scorching heat nor the biting cold. Trees will
spread their shade around them, and fruits will hang in clusters over
them.

goblets; silver goblets which they themselves shall measure: and they
shall be given to drink from cups brimful with ginger-flavoured water

When you gaze upon that scene you will behold blessings and a
glorious kingdom.
They shall be arrayed in garments of fine green silk and rich
