Isaiah 61:4-6

4Then they will 1rebuild the ancient ruins, They will raise up the former devastations; And they will repair the ruined cities, The desolations of many generations.5 2Strangers will stand and pasture your flocks, And 3foreigners will be your farmers and your vinedressers.6But you will be called the 4priests of the Lord; You will be spoken of as 5ministers of our God. You will eat the 6wealth of nations, And in their 7riches you will boast.
