21 In that city those who build houses will live there.
    Those who plant vineyards will get to eat their grapes.
22 No more will one person build a house and someone else live there.
    One person will not plant a garden and someone else eat its fruit.
My people will live a long time,
    as trees live long.
My chosen people will live there
    and enjoy the things they make.
23 They will never again work for nothing.
    They will never again give birth to children who die young.
All my people will be blessed by the Lord;
    they and their children will be blessed.

21 They will build houses(A) and dwell in them;
    they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.(B)
22 No longer will they build houses and others live in them,(C)
    or plant and others eat.
For as the days of a tree,(D)
    so will be the days(E) of my people;
my chosen(F) ones will long enjoy
    the work of their hands.
23 They will not labor in vain,(G)
    nor will they bear children doomed to misfortune;(H)
for they will be a people blessed(I) by the Lord,
    they and their descendants(J) with them.
