20 No longer will there be in it an infant
    who lives but a few days,
or an old man who does not fill out his days.
For the youth will die at a hundred years,
But one who misses the mark of a hundred
must be accursed.
21 They will build houses and inhabit them.
They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22 They will not build and another inhabit,
    nor plant and another eat.
For like the days of a tree,
    so will be the days of My people,
and My chosen ones will long enjoy
    the work of their hands.

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.
