Isaiah 65:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 But be you glad and rejoice forever in the things that I shall create; for behold, I will create Jerusalem, as a rejoicing, and her people as a joy.
19 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.
20 There shall be no more there a child of years, nor an old man that hath [a]not filled his days: for he that shall be an hundred years old, shall die as a young man: but the sinner being [b]an hundred years old shall be accursed.
