¹⁸ But be glad and rejoice forever
    in that which I create;
for behold, ^(A)I create Jerusalem to be a joy,
    and her people to be a gladness.
^19 (B)I will rejoice in Jerusalem
    and be glad in my people;
^(C)no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping
    and the cry of distress.
²⁰ No more shall there be in it
    an infant who lives but a few days,
    or an old man who does not fill out his days,
for ^(D)the young man shall die a hundred years old,
    and ^(E)the sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed.
