bI hate robbery1 for burnt offering;
I will direct their work in truth,
cAnd will make with them an everlasting covenant.
And their offspring among the people.
All who see them shall acknowledge them,
aThat they are the posterity whom the Lord has blessed.”
My soul shall be joyful in my God;
For bHe has clothed me with the garments of salvation,
He has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
cAs a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments,
And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth,
So the Lord God will cause arighteousness and bpraise to spring forth before all the nations.
| << Isaiah 61:9 | Isaiah 61:11 >> |
