Isaiah 65:20-22
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
20 No longer shall there be in it
an infant who lives but a few days,
nor anyone who does not live a full lifetime;
One who dies at a hundred years shall be considered a youth,
and one who falls short of a hundred shall be thought accursed.(A)
21 They shall build houses and live in them,
they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit;
22 They shall not build and others live there;
they shall not plant and others eat.
As the years of a tree, so the years of my people;
and my chosen ones shall long enjoy
the work of their hands.
Isaiah 65:20-22
New International Version
20 “Never again will there be in it
an infant(A) who lives but a few days,
or an old man who does not live out his years;(B)
the one who dies at a hundred
will be thought a mere child;
the one who fails to reach[a] a hundred
will be considered accursed.
21 They will build houses(C) and dwell in them;
they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.(D)
22 No longer will they build houses and others live in them,(E)
or plant and others eat.
For as the days of a tree,(F)
so will be the days(G) of my people;
my chosen(H) ones will long enjoy
the work of their hands.
