Old Testament

New Testament

Isaiah 61:8-11 English Standard Version (ESV)

8. For I the Lord love justice;I hate robbery and wrong; I will faithfully give them their recompense, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

9. Their offspring shall be known among the nations,and their descendants in the midst of the peoples;all who see them shall acknowledge them,that they are an offspring the Lord has blessed.

10. I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

11. For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up,so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praiseto sprout up before all the nations.
