Isaiah 61:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 For your shame you shall receive [a]double, and for confusion, [b]they shall rejoice in [c]their portion: for in their land they shall possess the [d]double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
8 For I the Lord love judgment, and hate [e]robbery for burnt offering, and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 And [f]their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their buds among the people. All that see them, shall know them, that they are the seed which the Lord hath blessed.
