Isaiah 61:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 And they shall build the old waste places, and raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the cities that were desolate and waste through many [a]generations.
5 And the strangers shall [b]stand and feed your sheep, and the sons of the strangers shall be your plowmen, and dressers of your vines.
6 But ye shall be named the [c]Priests of the Lord, and men shall say unto you, The ministers of our God: Ye shall eat the [d]riches of the Gentiles, and shall be exalted with their glory.
