Isaiah 61:7-9
English Standard Version
7 (A)Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion;
instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot;
therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion;
they shall have everlasting joy.
8 (B)For I the Lord love justice;
I hate robbery and wrong;[a]
(C)I will faithfully give them their recompense,
(D)and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Their offspring shall be known among the nations,
and their descendants in the midst of the peoples;
all who see them shall acknowledge them,
that they are an offspring the Lord has blessed.
