61The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind 1 up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2to proclaim the year of the Lord 's favor and the day of vengeance 2 of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
3and provide for those who grieve in Zion- to bestow 3 on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor 4.
4They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated 5; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.
5Aliens will shepherd your flocks; foreigners will work your fields and vineyards.
6And you will be called priests of the Lord , you will be named ministers of our God. You will feed on the wealth of nations, and in their riches you will boast.
7Instead of their shame my people will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace they will rejoice in their inheritance; and so they will inherit a double portion in their land, and everlasting 6 joy will be theirs.
8"For I, the Lord , love justice; I hate robbery and iniquity 7. In my faithfulness I will reward them and make an everlasting covenant 8 with them.
9Their descendants will be known among the nations and their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge that they are a people the Lord has blessed."
10I delight greatly in the Lord ; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation 9 and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns 10 his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11For as the soil makes the sprout 11 come up and a garden causes seeds to grow, so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness and praise spring up before all nations.
