Isaiah 61:3
The Voice
3 As for those who grieve over Zion,
God has sent me to give them a beautiful crown in exchange for ashes,
To anoint them with gladness instead of sorrow,
to wrap them in victory, joy, and praise instead of depression and sadness.
People will call them magnificent, like great towering trees
standing for what is right.
They stand to the glory of the Eternal
who planted them.
Isaiah 61:3
New International Version
Isaiah 61:3
New International Version
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown(A) of beauty
instead of ashes,(B)
the oil(C) of joy
instead of mourning,(D)
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting(E) of the Lord
for the display of his splendor.(F)
