Isaiah 61:3-5
Legacy Standard Bible
3 To (A)grant those who mourn in Zion,
Giving them a headdress instead of ashes,
The (B)oil of rejoicing instead of mourning,
The mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting.
So they will be called [a](C)oaks of righteousness,
The planting of Yahweh, that He may show forth His beautiful glory.
4 Then they will (D)rebuild the ancient waste places;
They will raise up the former desolations;
And they will make new the ruined cities,
The desolations from generation to generation.
5 (E)Strangers will stand and pasture your flocks,
And [b]foreigners will be your farmers and your vinedressers.
