Isaiah 65:16-18

New International Reader's Version

¹⁶ They will ask me to bless their land.
    They will do it in my name.
    I am the one true God.
They will make promises in their land.
    They will do it in my name.
    I am the one true God.
The troubles of the past will be forgotten.
    They will be hidden from my eyes.

¹⁷ “I will create new heavens and a new earth.
    The things that have happened before will not be remembered.
    They will not even enter your minds.
¹⁸ So be glad and full of joy forever
    because of what I will create.
I will cause others to take delight in Jerusalem.
    They will be filled with joy
    when they see its people.
