14 My servants will shout for joy from a glad heart,but you will cry out from an anguished heart,and you will lament out of a broken spirit.
15 You will leave your name behindas a curse for My chosen ones, and the Lord God will kill you;but He will give His servants another name.
16 Whoever is blessed in the landwill be blessed by the God of truth, and whoever swears in the landwill swear by the God of truth.For the former troubles will be forgottenand hidden from My sight.
17 “For I will create a new heaven and a new earth; the past events will not be remembered or come to mind.
18 Then be glad and rejoice foreverin what I am creating;for I will create Jerusalem to be a joyand its people to be a delight.
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalemand be glad in My people.The sound of weeping and cryingwill no longer be heard in her.
20 In her, a nursing infant will no longer liveonly a few days, or an old man not live out his days.Indeed, the youth will die at a hundred years,and the one who misses a hundred years will be cursed.
