(1) In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple. (2) Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. (3) And one called unto another, and said:
Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory.
(4) And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. (5) Then said I: Woe is me! for I am undone; Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For mine eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts. (6) Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, with a glowing stone in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar; (7) and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; And thine iniquity is taken away, And thy sin expiated.

Likutei Moranan 2:24
It’s a great mitzvah to be happy all the time, and to gird oneself to push away sadness and dark bitterness with all one’s strength.
(יא) וַיְהִ֛י כַּֽאֲשֶׁר־תַּ֥ם כָּל־הָעָ֖ם לַֽעֲב֑וֹר וַיַּעֲבֹ֧ר אֲרוֹן־יְהוָ֛ה וְהַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים לִפְנֵ֥י הָעָֽם׃ ...

(11) And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over, that the ark of the LORD passed on, and the priests, before the people. ... (15) And the LORD spoke unto Joshua, saying: (16) ’Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.’ (17) Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying: ‘Come ye up out of the Jordan.’ (18) And it came to pass, as the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD came up out of the midst of the Jordan, as soon as the soles of the priests’feet were drawn up unto the dry ground, that the waters of the Jordan returned unto their place, and went over all its banks, as aforetime.
