Isaiah 61:7-9
Revised Standard Version
7 Instead of your shame you shall have a double portion,
instead of dishonor you[a] shall rejoice in your[b] lot;
therefore in your[c] land you[d] shall possess a double portion;
yours[e] shall be everlasting joy.
8 For I the Lord love justice,
I hate robbery and wrong;[f]
I will faithfully give them their recompense,
and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Their descendants shall be known among the nations,
and their offspring in the midst of the peoples;
all who see them shall acknowledge them,
that they are a people whom the Lord has blessed.
