Isaiah 65:17-25
Legacy Standard Bible
New Heavens and a New Earth
17 “For behold, I am creating a (A)new heavens and a new earth;
And the (B)former things will not be remembered or come upon the heart.
18 But be (C)joyful and rejoice forever in what I create;
For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicing
And her people for joy.
19 I will also (D)rejoice in Jerusalem and be joyful in My people;
And there will no longer be heard in her
The voice of (E)weeping and the voice of crying.
20 No longer will there be [a]in it an infant who lives but a few days,
Or an old man who does (F)not fulfill his days;
For the youth will die at the age of one hundred,
And the [b](G)one who does not reach the age of one hundred
Will be thought accursed.
21 They will (H)build houses and inhabit them;
They will also (I)plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22 They will not build and (J)another inhabit;
They will not plant and another eat;
For (K)as the [c]lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people,
And My chosen ones will (L)wear out the work of their hands.
23 They will (M)not labor in vain,
Or bear children for terror;
For they are the (N)seed of those blessed by Yahweh,
And their offspring with them.
24 And it will be that before they call, I will (O)answer, and while they are still speaking, I will hear. 25 The (P)wolf and the lamb will graze together, and the (Q)lion will eat straw like the ox; and (R)dust will be the serpent’s food. They will (S)do no evil nor act corruptly in all My (T)holy mountain,” says Yahweh.

Lexham English Bible
New Creation
17 For look! I am about to create new heavens and a new earth,
and the former things shall not be remembered,
and they shall not come to mind.[a]
18 But rejoice and shout in exultation forever and ever over what I am about to create!
For look! I am about to create Jerusalem as a source of rejoicing,
and her people as a source of joy.
19 And I will shout in exultation over Jerusalem,
and I will rejoice over my people,
and the sound of weeping shall no longer be heard in it,
or[b] the sound of a cry for help.
20 There will no longer be a nursing infant who lives only a few[c] days,
or[d] an old man who does not fill his days,
for the boy will die a hundred years old,[e]
and the one who fails to reach[f] a hundred years[g] will be considered[h] accursed.
21 And they shall build houses and inhabit them,
and they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22 They shall not build and another inhabit;
they shall not plant and another eat.
For the days of my people shall be like the days of a tree,
and my chosen ones shall enjoy the work of their hands.
23 They shall not labor for nothing,
and they shall not give birth to horror,
for they shall be offspring blessed by[i] Yahweh,
and their descendants with them.
24 And this will happen: before they call, I myself will answer;
while still they are speaking, I myself will hear.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed like one,
and the lion shall eat straw like the ox,
but[j] dust shall be the serpent’s food.
They shall do no evil,
and they shall not destroy on all my holy mountain,”[k] says Yahweh.
