Isaiah 65:18-24

18But be ye gladH7797 and rejoiceH1523 for everH5703 in that which I createH1254: for, behold, I createH1254 JerusalemH3389 a rejoicingH1525, and her peopleH5971 a joyH4885.

19And I will rejoiceH1523 in JerusalemH3389, and joyH7797 in my peopleH5971: and the voiceH6963 of weepingH1065 shall be no more heardH8085 in her, nor the voiceH6963 of cryingH2201.

20There shall be no more thence an infantH5764 of daysH3117, nor an old manH2205 that hath not filledH4390 his daysH3117: for the childH5288 shall dieH4191 an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 oldH1121; but the sinnerH2398 being an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 oldH1121 shall be accursedH7043.

21And they shall buildH1129 housesH1004, and inhabitH3427 them; and they shall plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 of them.

22They shall not buildH1129, and anotherH312 inhabitH3427; they shall not plantH5193, and anotherH312 eatH398: for as the daysH3117 of a treeH6086 are the daysH3117 of my peopleH5971, and mine electH972 shall long enjoyH1086 the workH4639 of their handsH3027.1

23They shall not labourH3021 in vainH7385, nor bring forthH3205 for troubleH928; for they are the seedH2233 of the blessedH1288 of YhwhH3068, and their offspringH6631 with them.

24And it shall come to pass, that before they callH7121, I will answerH6030; and while they are yet speakingH1696, I will hearH8085.
