Sweat or "zeah" in the the Hebrew language meaning: "perspiration" meaning that all work on this earth are not easy, you will somehow sweat before you accomplish your goals in life.

Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as [something done] for the Lord and not for men,

But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.

And we are greatly comforted from this perspiration.
