U-Isaya 65:17-25

“Ngokuba bheka, ngiyadala izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha; izinto zakuqala aziyikukhunjulwa, zingene enhliziyweni. Kepha jabulani, nethabe kuze kube phakade ngengikudalayo, ngokuba bheka, ngilidala iJerusalema libe ngukwethaba, nabantu balo babe yinjabulo. Ngiyakwethaba ngeJerusalema, ngijabule ngabantu bami, kungabe kusezwakala izwi lokulila nezwi lokukhala. “Kusukela lapho akusayikuba khona ingane yezinsuku nje nexhegu elingazigcwalisanga izinsuku zalo, ngokuba omusha uyakufa eneminyaka eyikhulu yobudala, isoni siqalekiswe sineminyaka eyikhulu. Bayakwakha izindlu, bahlale kuzo; bayakutshala izivini, badle izithelo zazo. Abayikwakha, kuhlale omunye; abayikutshala, kudle omunye, ngokuba izinsuku zabantu bami ziyakuba njengezinsuku zomuthi, nomsebenzi wezandla zabakhethiweyo bami uyakugugela kubo. Abayikushikashikela ize, bazalele izinhlupheko, ngokuba bayinzalo yababusisiweyo bakaJehova, nabantwana babo bayakuba nabo. Kuyakuthi bengakangibizi, mina ngiphendule; besakhuluma, mina ngiyakuzwa. Impisi iyakudla ndawonye newundlu, ingonyama idle utshani njengenkomo, uthuli lube ngukudla kwenyoka; aziyikulimaza, zingachithi kuyo yonke intaba yami engcwele,” usho uJehova.
