Isaiah 61:2-4
Jubilee Bible 2000
2 to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favour, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 to order in Zion those that mourn, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
4 ¶ And they shall build the old wastes; they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall restore the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.

Isaiah 61:2-4
New International Version
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor(A)
and the day of vengeance(B) of our God,
to comfort(C) all who mourn,(D)
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown(E) of beauty
instead of ashes,(F)
the oil(G) of joy
instead of mourning,(H)
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting(I) of the Lord
for the display of his splendor.(J)
4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins(K)
and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities
that have been devastated for generations.
