Isaiah 61:7

61:7 Instead of shame, you will get a double portion;

instead of humiliation, they will rejoice over the land they receive.

Yes, they will possess a double portion in their land

and experience lasting joy.


tn Heb “instead of your shame, a double portion.”

tn 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).

tn Heb “therefore” (so KJV, NASB); NIV “and so.”
