Isaiah 65:17-25
17“For behold, I create 1new heavens and a new earth; And the 2former things will not be remembered or come to 3mind.18But be 4glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicing And her people for gladness.19I will also 5rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in My people; And there will no longer be heard in her The voice of 6weeping and the sound of crying.20No longer will there be 7in it an infant who lives but a few days, Or an old man who does 8not 9live out his days; For the youth will die at the age of one hundred And the 1011one who does not reach the age of one hundred Will be thought accursed.21They will 12build houses and inhabit them; They will also 13plant vineyards and eat their fruit.22They will not build and 14another inhabit, They will not plant and another eat; For 15as the 16lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people, And My chosen ones will 17wear out the work of their hands.23They will 18not labor in vain, Or bear children for calamity; For they are the 1920offspring of those blessed by the Lord, And their descendants with them. 24It will also come to pass that before they call, I will 21answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear. 25The 22wolf and the lamb will graze together, and the 23lion will eat straw like the ox; and 24dust will be the serpent’s food. They will 25do no evil or harm in all My 26holy mountain,” says the Lord.
