Isaiah 61:6

The Year Of Yahweh's Favor

⁵
Strangers will stand and feed your flocks,
And foreigners will be your farmers and your vinedressers.
⁶ 
But you shall be called the priests of the Lord;
People will speak of you as the ministers of our God.
You will eat the wealth of nations,
And you will boast of their riches.
⁷
Instead of your [former] shame you will have a double portion;
And instead of humiliation your people will shout for joy over their portion.
Therefore in their land they will possess double [what they had forfeited];
Everlasting joy will be theirs.
