Isaiah 61:6-11

6But ye shall be namedH7121 the PriestsH3548 of YhwhH3068: men shall callH559 you the MinistersH8334 of our GodH430: ye shall eatH398 the richesH2428 of the GentilesH1471, and in their gloryH3519 shall ye boastH3235 yourselves.

7For your shameH1322 ye shall have doubleH4932; and for confusionH3639 they shall rejoiceH7442 in their portionH2506: therefore in their landH776 they shall possessH3423 the doubleH4932: everlastingH5769 joyH8057 shall be unto them. 8For I YhwhH3068 loveH157 judgmentH4941, I hateH8130 robberyH1498 for burnt offeringH5930; and I will directH5414 their workH6468 in truthH571, and I will makeH3772 an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 with them. 9And their seedH2233 shall be knownH3045 among the GentilesH1471, and their offspringH6631 amongH8432 the peopleH5971: all that seeH7200 them shall acknowledgeH5234 them, that they are the seedH2233 which YhwhH3068 hath blessedH1288. 10I will greatlyH7797 rejoiceH7797 in YhwhH3068, my soulH5315 shall be joyfulH1523 in my GodH430; for he hath clothedH3847 me with the garmentsH899 of salvationH3468, he hath coveredH3271 me with the robeH4598 of righteousnessH6666, as a bridegroomH2860 deckethH3547 himself with ornamentsH6287, and as a brideH3618 adornethH5710 herself with her jewelsH3627.1 11For as the earthH776 bringeth forthH3318 her budH6780, and as the gardenH1593 causeth the things that are sownH2221 in it to spring forthH6779; so the LordH136 YhwhH3069 will cause righteousnessH6666 and praiseH8416 to spring forthH6779 before all the nationsH1471.
