Then they will (A)rebuild the ancient ruins,
They will raise up the former devastations;
And they will repair the ruined cities,
The desolations of many generations.
(B)Strangers will stand and pasture your flocks,
And [a]foreigners will be your farmers and your vinedressers.
But you will be called the (C)priests of the Lord;
You will be spoken of as (D)ministers of our God.
You will eat the (E)wealth of nations,
And you will boast in their [b]riches.
