Isaiah 65:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 This is what the Lord says:
“Just as the new wine is found in the cluster,
And one says, ‘Do not destroy it, for there is [a]benefit in it,’
So I will act in behalf of My servants
In order (A)not to destroy [b]all of them.
9 I will bring forth [c](B)offspring from Jacob,
And an (C)heir of My mountains from Judah;
(D)My chosen ones shall inherit it,
And (E)My servants will live there.
10 (F)Sharon will be a pasture land for flocks,
And the (G)Valley of Achor a resting place for herds,
For My people who (H)seek Me.

Isaiah 65:8-10
Common English Bible
8 The Lord proclaims:
As new wine is found in the grape cluster,
and someone says, “Don’t destroy it, for there is a blessing in it,”
so I will do for the sake of my servants
and not destroy everything:
9 I will bring out offspring from Jacob,
and from Judah, heirs to my mountains.
My chosen ones will take possession;
my servants will dwell there.
10 Sharon will become a pasture for sheep,
and the Achor Valley a resting place for cattle,
for my people who seek me.
