וּשְׂמַחְתֶּ֗ם לִפְנֵי֮ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם֒ אַתֶּ֗ם וּבְנֵיכֶם֙ וּבְנֹ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם וְעַבְדֵיכֶ֖ם וְאַמְהֹתֵיכֶ֑ם וְהַלֵּוִי֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בְּשַֽׁעֲרֵיכֶ֔ם כִּ֣י אֵ֥ין ל֛וֹ חֵ֥לֶק וְנַחֲלָ֖ה אִתְּכֶֽם׃
你們和你們的兒女、僕婢，以及住在你們城中的利未人，都要在永恆者你們的上帝面前歡喜快樂，因為他在你們中間無分無業。
Shenei Luchot HaBerit
ואכלתם שם לפני ה' אלוקיכם, … ושמחתם לפני ה' אלוקיכם . According to the Zohar, these verses (12,7 and 12,12) describe different epochs. As long as the Temple was standing one could be in the Presence of G–d, consume the sacrifices in Jerusalem, and rejoice while doing so. How can a person sit down and eat and enjoy same in the knowledge that there is no Temple and that no sacrifices can be offered and that we are not allowed into G–d's Presence? The second verse comes to console us that G–d will join us when we sit down for our meals and recite the appropriate benedictions. He will encourage us to speak words of Torah during the meal.
