Isaiah 61:4-9

4And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the places desolate from generation to generation.

5And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your ploughmen and your vinedressers.

6But as for you, ye shall be called priests of Jehovah; it shall be said of you: Ministers of our 1God. Ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and into their glory shall ye enter.

7Instead of your shame [ye shall have] double; instead of confusion they shall celebrate with joy their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double; everlasting joy shall be unto them.

8For I, Jehovah, love judgment, I hate robbery with wrong; and I will give their recompence in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

9And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are a seed that Jehovah hath blessed.
