15 You will leave your name as a (A)curse to My chosen ones,
And the Lord [a]God will put you to death.
But [b]My servants will be called by (B)another name.
16 Because the one who [c]is blessed on the earth
Will [d]be blessed by the (C)God of truth;
And the one who swears an oath on the earth
Will (D)swear by the God of truth;
Because the former troubles are forgotten,
And because they are hidden from My sight!

New Heavens and a New Earth

17 “For behold, I create (E)new heavens and a new earth;
And the (F)former things will not be remembered or come to [e]mind.
