Isaias

13 Therefore, thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, and ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, and ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, and ye shall be ashamed:

14 Behold, my servants shall sing for happiness of heart, and ye shall cry out for pain of heart, and shall howl for breaking of spirit.

15 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen and the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name;

16 So that he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the first distresses are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.

17 For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the first things shall not be remembered, nor come up into the heart.

18 But rejoice ye and exult for ever at that which I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem an exultation, and her people a joy.

19 And I Will exult in Jerusalem, and rejoice in my people, and the voice of weeping shall no more be heard in her, nor the voice of crying out.

20 There shall be no more from thence an infant of days, or an old man, that shall not fulfil his days: for the youth a hundred years old shall die, and the sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed

21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.

22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat; for as the days of the tree are the days of my people, and my chosen shall wear out the works of their hands.

23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring (shall be) with them.

24 And it shall be, before they shall call, I will answer; still shall they be speaking, and I will hear.
