4. They will rebuild the old ruins.They will raise up the places long devastated.They will repair the ruined cities,that have been devastated for many generations.
5. Strangers will stand and feed your flocks,and foreigners will work your fields and your vineyards.
6. But you will be called the Lord’s priests.Men will call you the servants of our God.You will eat the wealth of the nations,and you will boast in their glory.
7. Instead of your shame you will have double.Instead of dishonour, they will rejoice in their portion.Therefore in their land, they will possess double.Everlasting joy will be to them.
8. “For I, the Lord, love justice.I hate robbery and iniquity.I will give them their reward in truth,and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
