Isaiah 65:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 There shall be no more there a child of years, nor an old man that hath [a]not filled his days: for he that shall be an hundred years old, shall die as a young man: but the sinner being [b]an hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 And they shall [c]build houses, and inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit: they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of the tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall enjoy in old age the work of their hands.

Isaiah 65:20-22
New International Version
20 “Never again will there be in it
an infant(A) who lives but a few days,
or an old man who does not live out his years;(B)
the one who dies at a hundred
will be thought a mere child;
the one who fails to reach[a] a hundred
will be considered accursed.
21 They will build houses(C) and dwell in them;
they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.(D)
22 No longer will they build houses and others live in them,(E)
or plant and others eat.
For as the days of a tree,(F)
so will be the days(G) of my people;
my chosen(H) ones will long enjoy
the work of their hands.
