Isaiah 61:4-9 (New Revised Standard)
4
They shall build up the ancient ruins, they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations.
5
Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, foreigners shall till your land and dress your vines;
6
but you shall be called priests of the Lord, you shall be named ministers of our God; you shall enjoy the wealth of the nations, and in their riches you shall glory.
7
Because their a shame was double, and dishonor was proclaimed as their lot, therefore they shall possess a double portion; everlasting joy shall be theirs.
8
For I the Lord love justice, I hate robbery and wrongdoing; b I will faithfully give them their recompense, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9
Their descendants shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge that they are a people whom the Lord has blessed.
