Isaiah 61:4-9

The Voice

⁴ And they will rebuild this place from its ancient ruins;
    they will restore the ages-old, once-splendid structures;
They will renew Israel’s ruined cities
    from the ashes and debris that laid untouched for many generations.
⁵ And people will come from all over to serve you:
    Outsiders will tend your flocks, plough your fields, and prune your vines.
⁶ You will be known as the ones specially chosen by the Eternal as priests;
    people will speak of you as ministers of our God.
    And the wealth of nations will come to you for your delight and enrichment.
⁷ Many called you disgraced and defiled and said that shame should be your share of things.
    Yet you suffered doubly and lived in disgrace;
So double will be your share, and with joy everlasting.

⁸ Eternal One: For I, the Eternal, love justice.
        I hate stealing and all manner of wrongdoing.
    In faithfulness to those who do justice, I promise they will be rewarded for their work;
        and I will establish an everlasting covenant with them.
⁹     Furthermore, I will promise them My support for their children,
        so that all nations and everyone around
    Will see that they are the children blessed by the Eternal God.
