23 They will (A)not labor in vain,
Or give birth to children for disaster;
For they are the [a](B)descendants of those blessed by the Lord,
And their descendants with them.

24 It will also come to pass that before they call, I will (C)answer; while they are still speaking, I will listen. 25 The (D)wolf and the lamb will graze together, and the (E)lion will eat straw like the ox; and (F)dust will be the serpent’s food. They will (G)do no evil or harm on all My (H)holy mountain,” says the Lord.
