He has sent me to the sorrowing people of Jerusalem.
    I will give them a crown to replace their ashes.
I will give them the oil of gladness to replace their sorrow.
    I will give them clothes of praise to replace their spirit of sadness.
Then they will be called Trees of Goodness.
    They will be like trees planted by the Lord and will show his greatness.

They will rebuild the old ruins.
    They will build up the places destroyed long ago.
They will repair the ruined cities
    that were destroyed for so long.

My people, foreigners will come to tend your sheep.
    People from other countries will tend your vineyards.
