Isaiah 61:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 They shall rebuild the ancient ruins,
the former wastes they shall raise up
And restore the desolate cities,
devastations of generation upon generation.(A)
5 Strangers shall stand ready to pasture your flocks,
foreigners shall be your farmers and vinedressers.
6 [a]You yourselves shall be called “Priests of the Lord,”
“Ministers of our God” you shall be called.
You shall eat the wealth of the nations
and in their riches you will boast.(B)
Isaiah 61:4-6

4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins(A)
and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities
that have been devastated for generations.
5 Strangers(B) will shepherd your flocks;
foreigners will work your fields and vineyards.
6 And you will be called priests(C) of the Lord,
you will be named ministers of our God.
You will feed on the wealth(D) of nations,
and in their riches you will boast.
