New Testament

Isaiah 61:7-11 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

7. Instead of being ashamed, you will receive twice as much wealth.Instead of being disgraced, you will be happy because of what you receive.You will receive a double share of the land.So your happiness will continue forever.

8. The Lord says, “I love justice.I hate stealing and everything that is wrong.I will be fair and give my people what they should have.I will make an agreement with them that will continue forever.

9. Everyone in all nations will know the children of my people.And their children will be known among the nations.Anyone who sees them will knowthat the Lord blesses them.”

10. The Lord makes me very happy.All that I am rejoices in my God.The Lord has covered me with clothes of salvation.He has covered me with a coat of goodness.I am like a bridegroom dressed for his wedding.I am like a bride dressed in jewels.

11. The earth causes plants to grow.And a garden causes the seeds planted there to grow.In the same way the Lord God will make grow what is right.He will make praise come from all the nations.
