Isaiah 65:8-10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
8 The Lord says this:
As the new wine is found in a bunch of grapes,
and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it,
for there’s some good[a] in it,’
so I will act because of My servants
and not destroy them all.
9 I will produce descendants from Jacob,(A)
and heirs to My mountains from Judah;
My chosen(B) ones will possess it,
and My servants will dwell there.(C)
10 Sharon will be a pasture for flocks,(D)
and the Valley of Achor a place for cattle to lie down,(E)
for My people who have sought Me.(F)

Isaiah 65:8-10
New Living Translation
8 “But I will not destroy them all,”
says the Lord.
“For just as good grapes are found among a cluster of bad ones
(and someone will say, ‘Don’t throw them all away—
some of those grapes are good!’),
so I will not destroy all Israel.
For I still have true servants there.
9 I will preserve a remnant of the people of Israel[a]
and of Judah to possess my land.
Those I choose will inherit it,
and my servants will live there.
10 The plain of Sharon will again be filled with flocks
for my people who have searched for me,
and the valley of Achor will be a place to pasture herds.
