What tears are spoken of here?

Revelation 21:4 (ESV)

4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”

These are the tears due to injustice and sin, persecution and oppression of the children of God (Matthew 5:4).
