Isaiah 65:18-24

18Then be glad and rejoice forever in what I am creating; for I will create Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight.

19I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in my people. The sound of weeping and crying will no longer be heard in her.

20In her, a nursing infant will no longer live only a few days, or an old man not live out his days. Indeed, the one who dies at a hundred years old will be mourned as a young man, and the one who misses a hundred years will be considered cursed.

21People will build houses and live in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22They will not build and others live in them; they will not plant and others eat. For my people’s lives will be like the lifetime of a tree. My chosen ones will fully enjoy the work of their hands.

23They will not labor without success or bear children destined for disaster, for they will be a people blessed by the Lord along with their descendants.

24Even before they call, I will answer; while they are still speaking, I will hear.
