Isaiah 65:16-18

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁶ Then whoever invokes a blessing in the land
    shall bless by the God of faithfulness,
and whoever takes an oath in the land
    shall swear by the God of faithfulness,
because the former troubles are forgotten
    and are hidden from my sight.^(A)

¹⁷ For I am about to create new heavens
    and a new earth;
the former things shall not be remembered
    or come to mind.^(B)
18 But be glad and rejoice forever
    in what I am creating,
for I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy
    and its people as a delight.^(C)
