Isaiah 61:8-10

The Voice

⁸ Eternal One: For I, the Eternal, love justice.
        I hate stealing and all manner of wrongdoing.
    In faithfulness to those who do justice, I promise they will be rewarded for their work;
        and I will establish an everlasting covenant with them.
⁹     Furthermore, I will promise them My support for their children,
        so that all nations and everyone around
    Will see that they are the children blessed by the Eternal God.

¹⁰ I am filled with joy and my soul vibrates with exuberant hope,
    because of the Eternal my God;
For He has dressed me with the garment of salvation,
    wrapped me with the robe of righteousness.
It’s as though I’m dressed for my wedding day,^[a]
    in the very best: a bridegroom’s garland and a bride’s jewels.
