Isaiah 65:16-19

English Standard Version

¹⁶ so that he who ^(A)blesses himself in the land
    shall bless himself by ^(B)the God of truth,
and he who takes an oath in the land
    shall swear by ^(C)the God of truth;
^(D)because the former troubles are forgotten
    and are hidden from my eyes.

¹⁷ “For behold, ^(E)I create new heavens
    and a new earth,
and the former things shall not be remembered
    or come into mind.
¹⁸ But be glad and rejoice forever
    in that which I create;
for behold, ^(F)I create Jerusalem to be a joy,
    and her people to be a gladness.
^19 (G)I will rejoice in Jerusalem
    and be glad in my people;
^(H)no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping
    and the cry of distress.
