Isaiah 65:17-25

New Heavens and a New Earth

17For behold, I am creating a anew heavens and a new earth;And the bformer things will not be remembered or come upon the heart.18But be ajoyful and rejoice forever in what I create;For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicingAnd her people for joy.19I will also arejoice in Jerusalem and be joyful in My people;And there will no longer be heard in herThe voice of bweeping and the voice of crying.20No longer will there be 1in it an infant who lives but a few days,Or an old man who does anot fulfill his days;For the youth will die at the age of one hundred,And the 2,bone who does not reach the age of one hundredWill be thought accursed.21They will abuild houses and inhabit them;They will also bplant vineyards and eat their fruit.22They will not build and aanother inhabit;They will not plant and another eat;For bas the 1lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people,And My chosen ones will cwear out the work of their hands.23They will anot labor in vain,Or bear children for terror;For they are the bseed of those blessed by Yahweh,And their offspring with them.
24And it will be that before they call, I will aanswer, and while they are still speaking, I will hear. 25The awolf and the lamb will graze together, and the blion will eat straw like the ox; and cdust will be the serpent’s food. They will ddo no evil nor act corruptly in all My eholy mountain,” says Yahweh.
