Isaiah 65:18-20
International Standard Version
Isaiah 65:18-20
International Standard Version
18 But be glad[a] and rejoice[b] forever
in what I am creating,
for I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy,
and its people as a delight.
19 I’ll rejoice over Jerusalem,
and take delight in my people;
no longer will the sound of weeping be heard in it,
nor the cry of distress.
20 “And[c] there will no longer be in it
a young boy[d] who lives only a few days,
or an old person who does not live out his days;
for one who dies at a hundred years will be thought a mere youth,
and one who falls short of a hundred years will be considered accursed.
