Bible. Isaiah
23:065:008 Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster,
and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so
will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them
all.
23:065:009 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah
an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it,
and my servants shall dwell there.
23:065:010 And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor
a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have
sought me.
23:065:011 But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy
mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that
furnish the drink offering unto that number.
23:065:012 Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow
down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not
answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before
mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
23:065:013 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall
eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink,
but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice,
but ye shall be ashamed:
23:065:014 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall
cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of
spirit.
23:065:015 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for
the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another
name:
23:065:016 That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself
in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall
swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are
forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
23:065:017 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the
former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
23:065:018 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create:
for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a
joy.
23:065:019 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the
voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice
of crying.
23:065:020 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old
man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an
hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old
shall be accursed.
23:065:021 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall
plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
