For behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing,
And her people a joy.
And joy in My people;
The bvoice of weeping shall no longer be heard in her,
Nor the voice of crying.
Nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days;
For the child shall die one hundred years old,
aBut the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.
They shall not plant and aanother eat;
For bas the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people,
And cMy elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
aNor bring forth children for trouble;
For bthey shall be the descendants of the blessed of the Lord,
And their offspring with them.
That abefore they call, I will answer;
And while they are still speaking, I will bhear.
| << Isaiah 65:19 | Isaiah 65:21 >> |

Amplified® Bible
