15. You shall leave your name as a curse to My chosen;For the Lord God will slay you,And call His servants by another name;
16. So that he who blesses himself in the earthShall bless himself in the God of truth;And he who swears in the earthShall swear by the God of truth;Because the former troubles are forgotten,And because they are hidden from My eyes.
17. “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind.
18. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create;For behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing,And her people a joy.
19. I will rejoice in Jerusalem,And joy in My people;The voice of weeping shall no longer be heard in her,Nor the voice of crying.
20. “No more shall an infant from there live but a few days,Nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days;For the child shall die one hundred years old,But the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.
21. They shall build houses and inhabit them;They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
