The Key Word — לָשׂוּם, la.Sumgenerated
The Hebrew verb שׂוּם (sum) means 'to put' or 'to place', indicating an act of setting something in position or establishing it. This word is commonly used in various contexts throughout the Bible, including the appointment of leaders and the setting of boundaries. In this verse, it conveys God's action of placing comfort and beauty in the lives of those who mourn.
The parsing as a qal infinitive construct suggests an ongoing action, emphasizing that God continually provides comfort to those in need. The word's root conveys a sense of establishing or making something happen, which aligns with the transformative nature of God's promise in this passage.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse begins with the finite verb לָשׂוּם, to console, which governs the entire structure. Following this, several phrases elaborate on what God provides: a crown of beauty, oil of joy, and a garment of praise, each linked to a specific transformation from mourning to joy.
The use of parallelism in the phrases enhances the poetic nature of the text, with each element contrasting the previous state of despair with a new state of blessing, creating a rhythm that emphasizes God's restorative power.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates לָשׂוּם as δοθῆναι (dothēnai), meaning 'to be given'. This choice indicates a focus on the act of giving comfort, aligning with the overall theme of divine provision in the passage.
The translation of אֵילֵי as γενεαὶ (geneai) suggests a broader interpretation, possibly indicating generations or descendants, which may reflect a deeper understanding of the community's identity as rooted in righteousness.

Beauty for ashes.—Literally, a diadem, or coronet, which is to take the place of the ashes that had been sprinkled on the head of the mourners or penitents (2 Samuel 1:2; 2 Samuel 13:19; Joshua 7:6).

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text (MT) of Isaiah 61:3 presents a complete verse that emphasizes the transformation of mourning into joy and despair into praise. The Septuagint (LXX) aligns closely with the MT, matching 20 out of 24 words, though its word order and articles differ, indicating a similar but distinct translation approach. The Dead Sea Scrolls (1Qisaa) also largely agree with the MT, providing a complete text that matches the MT's wording closely. However, other fragments from the Dead Sea Scrolls (4Q56 and 4Q66) contain fewer words, with many words supplied by editors, indicating they are less complete but still support the overall message found in the MT. The 1Q8 fragment has 11 words, also heavily edited, suggesting it preserves part of the original text but lacks the fullness of the MT. Overall, the primary witnesses, MT and 1Qisaa, affirm the same core message of consolation and transformation for the mourners in Zion.

20 of the 24 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.

put (puT; Phoud, in Genesis and Chronicles, variant for Genesis Phout, for Chronicles, Phouth):
1. Renderings:
In consequence of the identification at the time, the prophets have "Libya" (Libues), except Nab 3:9, where the Greek renders the word as phuge, "flight." The Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 A.D.) has "Phut," "Phuth," and in the Prophets "Libyes" and "Libya"; the King James Version "Phut."
2. Son of Ham:
In the "Table of Nations" Put is the third son of Ham (Ge 10:6), the first and second being Cush and Misraim, and the fourth Canaan. Put is the only one of the sons of Ham who is not credited with descendants.

LITERATURE
1. Meaning of the Word:
A name applied to Jerusalem, or to certain parts of it, at least since the time of David. Nothing certain is known of the meaning. Gesenius and others have derived it from a Hebrew root tsahah, "to be dry"; Delitzsch from tsiwwah, "to set up" and Wetzstein from tsin, "to protect." Gesenius finds a more hopeful suggestion in the Arabic equivalent cihw, the Arabic cahwat signifying "ridge of a mountain" or "citadel," which at any rate suitably applies to what we know to have been the original Zion (compare Smith, HGHL, under the word).
Zion
Sunny; height, one of the eminences on which Jerusalem was built. It was surrounded on all sides, except the north, by deep valleys, that of the Tyropoeon (q.v.) separating it from Moriah (q.v.), which it surpasses in height by 105 feet. It was the south-eastern hill of Jerusalem.
When David took it from the Jebusites (Josh. 15:63; 2 Sam. 5:7) he built on it a citadel and a palace, and it became “the city of David” (1 Kings 8:1; 2 Kings 19:21, 31; 1 Chr. 11:5). In the later books of the Old Testament this name was sometimes used (Ps. 87:2; 149:2;

The word comes from the Latin pretium, "price," or "value," and may be defined generally as an ascription of value or worth. Praise may be bestowed upon unworthy objects or from improper motives, but true praise consists in a sincere acknowledgment of a real conviction of worth. Its type may be seen in the representation given in the Apocalypse of the adoration of God and of the Lamb, which is inspired by a sense of their worthiness to be adored (Re 4:11; 5:12).

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

For THE HOLY, HOLINESS SPIRIT, the third person of the Holy Trinity, who inspired the prophets, animates good men, pours his unction into our hearts, imparts to us life and comfort; and in whose name we are baptized and blessed, as well as in that of the Father and the Son. When the adjective Holy is applied to the term Spirit, we should always understand it as here explained; but there are many places whether it must be taken in this sense, although the term Holy is omitted. See HOLY, HOLINESS SPIRIT.

fant (`ayeph, `uph, ya`aph, `alaph, aTaph, dawway, yaghea`, macac, rakhakh, paghar, kahah; ekluo, ekkakeo, kamno): The Hebrew vocabulary for the depressing physical conditions and mental emotions which are rendered in the King James Version by the English words "faint," "fainthess," and other compounds of that stem, is, as will be seen above, wide and varied in derivation. The 11 Hebrew and 3 Greek words and their derivatives are used in 62 passages in the King James Version to express these conditions.
`Ayeph is used to express the exhaustion from fatigue and hunger in the case of Esau (Ge 25:29,30). This and its variants come from a root which primarily means "to cover or conceal," therefore "to be dark or obscure," and so, figuratively, "to be faint or depressed." Israel's helpless state when harassed by Amalek (
