New Testament

Isaiah 61:8-11 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

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

9. Their offspring shall be renowned among the nations,and their descendants in the midst of the peoples;All who see them shall acknowledge them:“They are offspring the Lord has blessed.”

10. I will rejoice heartily in the Lord,my being exults in my God;For he has clothed me with garments of salvation,and wrapped me in a robe of justice,Like a bridegroom adorned with a diadem,as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

11. As the earth brings forth its shoots,and a garden makes its seeds spring up,So will the Lord God make justice spring up,and praise before all the nations.
