AT: "Those whom Yahweh has rescued" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-nominaladj]]) # with gladness forever on their heads This uses a person's head to mean the person as a whole. AT: "they will be glad forever" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]]) # gladness and joy ... sorrow and mourning The words "gladness" and "joy" mean basically the same thing, as do "sorrow" and "mourning."
