Isaiah 65:13-16
New American Standard Bible
13 Therefore, this is what the Lord [a]God says:
“Behold, My servants will (A)eat, but you will be (B)hungry.
Behold, My servants will (C)drink, but you will be (D)thirsty.
Behold, My servants will (E)rejoice, but you will be (F)put to shame.
14 Behold, My servants will (G)shout joyfully with a glad heart,
But you will (H)cry out from a painful heart,
And you will wail from a broken spirit.
15 You will leave your name as a (I)curse to My chosen ones,
And the Lord [b]God will put you to death.
But [c]My servants will be called by (J)another name.
16 Because the one who [d]is blessed on the earth
Will [e]be blessed by the (K)God of truth;
And the one who swears an oath on the earth
Will (L)swear by the God of truth;
Because the former troubles are forgotten,
And because they are hidden from My sight!

Christian Standard Bible
13 Therefore, this is what the Lord God says:
“Look! My servants will eat,
but you will be hungry.
Look! My servants will drink,
but you will be thirsty.
Look! My servants will rejoice,
but you will be put to shame.
14 Look! My servants will shout for joy from a glad heart,
but you will cry out from an anguished heart,
and you will lament out of a broken spirit.
15 You will leave your name behind
as a curse for my chosen ones,(A)
and the Lord God will kill you;
but he will give his servants another name.(B)
16 Whoever asks for a blessing in the land
will ask for a blessing by the God of truth,(C)
and whoever swears in the land
will swear by the God of truth.
For the former troubles will be forgotten
and hidden from my sight.
