Isaiah 61:7–11

7 In place of your shame, you will have a double portion;j

in place of disgrace, they will rejoice over their share.

So they will possess double in their land,k

and eternal joy will be theirs.

8 For I the Lord love justice;l

I hate robbery and injustice;A

I will faithfully reward my people

and make a permanent covenantm 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.

10 I rejoice greatly in the Lord,

I exult in my God;

for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation

and wrapped me in a robe of righteousness,n

as a groom wears a turban

and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.o

11 For as the earth produces its growth,

and as a garden enables what is sown to spring up,

so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise

to spring up before all the nations.p
