Isaiah 61:8-9
New American Standard Bible
8 For I, the Lord, (A)love justice,
I hate robbery [a]in the burnt offering;
And I will faithfully give them their reward,
And make an (B)everlasting covenant with them.
9 Then their offspring will be known among the nations,
And their descendants in the midst of the peoples.
All who see them will recognize them
Because they are the (C)offspring whom the Lord has blessed.

22 They will not build and (A)another inhabit,
They will not plant and another eat;
For (B)as the [a]lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people,
And My chosen ones will (C)fully enjoy the work of their hands.
23 They will (D)not labor in vain,
Or give birth to children for disaster;
For they are the [b](E)descendants of those blessed by the Lord,
And their descendants with them.
