Isaiah 65:18-25

18 But be gladH7797 and rejoiceH1523 foreverH5703 H5704 in whatH834 IH589 createH1254; forH3588 H2005 I will createH1254 JerusalemH3389 to be a joyH1525 and its peopleH5971 to be a delightH4885 H518.19I will rejoiceH1523 in JerusalemH3389 and take delightH7797 in My peopleH5971. The soundsH6963 of weepingH1065 H6963 and cryingH2201 will noH3808 longerH5750 be heardH8085 in her.

20NoH3808 longerH5750 will a nursing infantH5764 liveH1961 H8033 but a few daysH3117,or an old manH2205 failH3808 to live outH4390 his yearsH3117.ForH3588 the youthH5288 will dieH4191 at a hundredH3967 yearsH1121 H8141,and he who failsH2398 to reach a hundredH3967 H1121 H8141will be considered accursedH7043.21They will buildH1129 housesH1004 and dwell in themH3427;they will plantH5193 vineyardsH3754 and eatH398 their fruitH6529.

22No longerH3808 will they build housesH1129 for othersH312 to inhabitH3427,norH3808 plantH5193 for othersH312 to eatH398.ForH3588 as is the lifetimeH3117 of a treeH6086,so will be the daysH3117 of My peopleH5971,and My chosen onesH972 will fully enjoyH1086the workH4639 of their handsH3027.

23They will notH3808 laborH3021 in vainH7385or bear childrenH3205 doomed to disasterH928;forH3588 theyH1992 will be a peopleH2233 blessedH1288 by the LORDH3068—they and their descendantsH6631 with themH854.24 Even beforeH2962 they callH7121, IH589 will answerH6030,and while theyH1992 are stillH5750 speakingH1696, IH589 will hearH8085.

25The wolfH2061 and the lambH2924 will feed togetherH7462 H259,and the lionH738 will eatH398 strawH8401 like the oxH1241,but the foodH3899 of the serpentH5175 1 will be dustH6083.They will neitherH3808 harmH7489 norH3808 destroyH7843on all MyH3605 holyH6944 mountainH2022,”saysH559 the LORDH3068.
