4 He shall judge between the nations,

neither shall they learn war anymore.

11 (A)“O afflicted one, storm-tossed and not comforted,
behold, (B)I will set your stones in antimony,
(C)and lay your foundations with sapphires.[a]
12 I will make your pinnacles of agate,[b]
your gates of carbuncles,[c]
and all your wall of precious stones.
13 (D)All your children (E)shall be taught by the Lord,
(F)and great shall be the peace of your children.
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
and from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 (G)If anyone stirs up strife,
it is not from me;
whoever stirs up strife with you
shall fall because of you.
16 Behold, I have created the smith
who blows the fire of coals
and produces a weapon for its purpose.
I have also created the ravager to destroy;
17 no weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed,
and you shall refute every tongue that rises against you in judgment.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord
(H)and their vindication[d] from me, declares the Lord.”

Isaiah 61:10-11
English Standard Version
10 (A)I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;
my soul shall exult in my God,
(B)for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;
he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom decks himself (C)like a priest with a beautiful headdress,
(D)and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,
and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up,
so the Lord God will cause (E)righteousness and praise
to sprout up before all the nations.

3 to grant to those who mourn in Zion—

(B)the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit;
(C)that they may be called oaks of righteousness,
the planting of the Lord, (D)that he may be glorified.[a]
4 (E)They shall build up the ancient ruins;
they shall raise up the former devastations;
they shall repair the ruined cities,
the devastations of many generations.
5 (F)Strangers shall stand and tend your flocks;
foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers;
6 (G)but you shall be called the priests of the Lord;
they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God;
(H)you shall eat the wealth of the nations,
and in their glory you shall boast.
