Isaiah 61:6 in Context — Isaiah 61

4 E edificarão os lugares arruinados desde os tempos antigos, restaurarão os desde antes destruídos, e renovarão as cidades arruinadas, destruídas desde muitas gerações.

5 E estrangeiros apascentarão vossos rebanhos, e filhos de outras nações serão vossos lavradores e vossos trabalhadores nas vinhas.

6 Porém vós sereis chamados sacerdotes do SENHOR; chamarão a vós de trabalhadores a serviço de nosso Deus; comereis dos bens das nações, e da riqueza deles vós vos orgulhareis.

7 Em vez de vossa vergonha, [tereis] porção dobrada; e [em vez] de humilhação, terão alegria sobre sua parte; pois em sua terra terão posse do dobro, [e] terão alegria eterna.

8 Porque eu, o SENHOR, amo a justiça, e odeio o roubo com sacrifício de queima; e farei que sua obra seja em verdade, e farei um pacto eterno com eles.
