23 They shall not labor in vain
    nor bring forth children for trouble;
for they are the descendants of the blessed of the Lord
    and their offspring with them.
24 Before they call, I will answer;
    and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together,
    and the lion shall eat straw like the bull,
    and dust shall be the serpent’s food.
They shall not hurt nor destroy
    in all My holy mountain,
    says the Lord.
