Isaiah 61:5 in Context — Isaiah 61

3 A ordenar á Sión á los enlutados, para darles gloria en lugar de ceniza, óleo de gozo en lugar del luto, manto de alegría en lugar del espíritu angustiado; y serán llamados árboles de justicia, plantío de Jehová, para gloria suya.

4 Y edificarán los desiertos antiguos, y levantarán los asolamientos primeros, y restaurarán las ciudades asoladas, los asolamientos de muchas generaciones.

5 Y estarán extranjeros, y apacentarán vuestras ovejas, y los extraños serán vuestros labradores y vuestros viñadores.

6 Y vosotros seréis llamados sacerdotes de Jehová, ministros del Dios nuestro seréis dichos: comeréis las riquezas de las gentes, y con su gloria seréis sublimes.

7 En lugar de vuestra doble confusión, y de vuestra deshonra, os alabarán en sus heredades; por lo cual en sus tierras poseerán doblado, y tendrán perpetuo gozo.
