Giving them a garland instead of ashes,

The cloak of praise instead of a disheartened spirit.
So they will be called [a](C)oaks of righteousness,
The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.

To grant to those who mourn in Zion the following:
To give them a [a]turban instead of dust [on their heads, a sign of mourning],
The oil of joy instead of mourning,
The garment [expressive] of praise instead of a disheartened spirit.
So they will be called the trees of righteousness [strong and magnificent, distinguished for integrity, justice, and right standing with God],
The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.
