Isaiah 65:17-24

New Heavens and a New Earth 17“See, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.

18But be glad and rejoice forever in what I will create, for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight and its people a joy.

19I will rejoice over Jerusalem and take delight in my people; the sound of weeping and of crying will be heard in it no more.

20“Never again will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his years; the one who dies at a hundred will be thought a mere child; the one who fails to reach Or the sinner who reaches a hundred will be considered accursed.

21They will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22No longer will they build houses and others live in them, or plant and others eat. For as the days of a tree, so will be the days of my people; my chosen ones will long enjoy the work of their hands.

23They will not labor in vain, nor will they bear children doomed to misfortune; for they will be a people blessed by the LORD, they and their descendants with them.

24Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear.
