Isaiah 61:4-9

4And they shall buildH1129 the oldH5769 wastesH2723, they shall raiseH6965 upH6965 the formerH7223 desolationsH8074, and they shall repairH2318 the wasteH2723 citiesH5892, the desolationsH8074 of manyH1755 generationsH1755.

5And strangersH2114 shall standH5975 and feedH7462 your flocksH6629, and aliens shall be your plowmenH406 and your vinedressersH3755.

6But ye shall be namedH7121 the priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068: menH7121 shall callH7121 youH859 the ministersH8334 of our GodH430: ye shall eatH398 the wealthH2428 of the nationsH1471, and in their gloryH3519 shall ye boastH3235 yourselves.

7For your shameH1322 ye shall have doubleH4932; and for confusion they shall rejoiceH7442 in their portionH2506: therefore in their landH776 they shall possessH3423 doubleH4932: everlastingH5769 joyH8057 shall be unto them.

8For I the LORDH3068 loveH157 judgmentH4941, I hateH8130 robberyH1498 with iniquity; and I will giveH5414 them their recompence in truthH571, and I will makeH5414 an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 with them.

9And their seedH2233 shall be knownH3045 among the nationsH1471, and their offspringH2233 among the peoplesH5971: allH3605 that seeH7200 them shall acknowledgeH3045 them, that they are the seedH2233 whichH1471 the LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288.
