Isaiah 61:4-9
Lexham English Bible
4 And they shall build the ancient ruins,
they shall erect the former deserted places.
And they shall restore the devastated cities,[a]
the deserted places of many generations.[b]
5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks,[c]
and foreigners[d] shall be your farmers and vinedressers.
6 But[e] you shall be called the priests of Yahweh,
you will be called[f] servers of our God.
You shall eat the wealth of the nations,
and you shall boast in their riches.
7 Instead of your shame, a double portion,
and instead of insult, they will rejoice over their portion.
Therefore they will take a double portion in their land;
they shall possess everlasting joy.[g]
8 For I, Yahweh, love justice,
hate robbery and[h] injustice,
and I will faithfully[i] give their reward,
and I will make[j] an everlasting covenant with[k] them.
9 And their descendants[l] will be known among the nations,
and their offspring in the midst of the peoples.
All those who see them shall recognize them,
that they are descendants[m] whom Yahweh has blessed.

Isaiah 61:4-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins;(A)
they will restore the former devastations;
they will renew the ruined cities,
the devastations of many generations.
5 Strangers will stand and feed your flocks,
and foreigners will be your plowmen and vinedressers.(B)
6 But you will be called the Lord’s priests;(C)
they will speak of you as ministers of our God;
you will eat the wealth of the nations,
and you will boast in their riches.
7 Because your shame was double,(D)
and they cried out, “Disgrace is their portion,”
therefore, they will possess double in their land,(E)
and eternal joy will be theirs.
8 For I Yahweh love justice;(F)
I hate robbery and injustice;[a]
I will faithfully reward them
and make an everlasting covenant(G) with them.
9 Their descendants will be known among the nations,
and their posterity among the peoples.
All who see them will recognize
that they are a people the Lord has blessed.
