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)
