Aliens shall stand and feed your flocks,
    foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers;
but you shall be called the priests of the Lord,
    men shall speak of you as the ministers of our God;
you shall eat the wealth of the nations,
    and in their riches you shall glory.
Instead of your shame you shall have a double portion,
    instead of dishonor you[a] shall rejoice in your[b] lot;
therefore in your[c] land you[d] shall possess a double portion;
    yours[e] shall be everlasting joy.
