4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins; they will restore the former devastations;they will renew the ruined cities,the devastations of many generations.
5 Strangers will stand and feed your flocks,and foreigners will be your plowmen and vinedressers.
6 But you will be called the Lord’s priests; they will speak of you as ministers of our God;you will eat the wealth of the nations,and you will boast in their riches.
7 Because your shame was double, and they cried out, “Disgrace is their portion,”therefore, they will possess double in their land, and eternal joy will be theirs.
8 For I Yahweh love justice; I hate robbery and injustice; I will faithfully reward themand make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Their descendants will be known among the nations,and their posterity among the peoples.All who see them will recognizethat they are a people the Lord has blessed.
10 I greatly rejoice in the Lord,I exult in my God;for He has clothed me with the garments of salvationand wrapped me in a robe of righteousness, as a groom wears a turbanand as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
