Isaiah 61:7-8
7 Instead of shame, you will get a double portion; ▼▼ Heb “instead of your shame, a double portion.”
instead of humiliation, they will rejoice over the land they receive. ▼
▼ Heb “and [instead of] humiliation they will rejoice [over] their portion.” The term תָחָת (takhat, “instead of”) is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).
Yes, ▼
▼ Heb “therefore” (so KJV, NASB); NIV “and so.”
they will possess a double portion in their land and experience lasting joy.
8 For I, the Lord, love justice
and hate robbery and sin.
I will repay them because of my faithfulness; ▼
▼ Heb “in faithfulness”; NASB, NRSV, NLT “faithfully.”
I will make a permanent covenant with them.
