4 They will rebuild cities that have long been in ruins.
5 My people, foreigners will serve you.They will take care of your flocksAnd farm your land and tend your vineyards.
6 And you will be known as the priests of the Lord,The servants of our God.You will enjoy the wealth of the nationsAnd be proud that it is yours.
7 Your shame and disgrace are ended.You will live in your own land,And your wealth will be doubled;Your joy will last forever.
8 The Lord says,“I love justice and I hate oppression and crime.I will faithfully reward my peopleAnd make an eternal covenant with them.
9 They will be famous among the nations;Everyone who sees them will knowThat they are a people whom I have blessed.”
10 Jerusalem rejoices because of what the Lord has done.She is like a bride dressed for her wedding.God has clothed her with salvation and victory.
