21 They will (A)build houses and inhabit them;
They will also (B)plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

And My chosen ones will (E)fully enjoy the work of their hands.

Or give birth to children for disaster;
For they are the [b](G)descendants of those blessed by the Lord,
And their descendants with them.
