And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.

The verse 4 is found in chapter 61 of Isaiah. The Anointed One announces good news to the poor, freedom to captives, and the year of Yahweh’s favor. The mission combines spiritual, social, and communal restoration. Images of ashes transformed into beauty and mourning into joy show that God’s work is not limited to forgiveness, but rebuilds the lives of the broken.

Sie werden die alten Wüstungen bauen, und was vorzeiten zerstört ist, aufrichten; sie werden die verwüsteten Städte, so für und für zerstört gelegen sind, erneuen.
Y edificarán los desiertos antiguos, y levantarán los asolamientos primeros, y restaurarán las ciudades asoladas, los asolamientos de muchas generaciones.
Ils rebâtiront sur d'anciennes ruines, Ils relèveront d'antiques décombres, Ils renouvelleront des villes ravagées, Dévastées depuis longtemps.
E riedificheranno i luoghi desolati già da lungo tempo, e ridirizzeranno le ruine antiche, rinnoveranno le città desolate, e i disertamenti di molte età addietro.
E edificarão os lugares antigamente assolados, e restaurarão os anteriormente destruídos, e renovarão as cidades assoladas, destruídas de geração em geração.
他們必修造久已荒涼的廢墟, 建立先前淒涼之處, 重修歷代荒涼之城。
