“They will not build and ^(C)another inhabit,
They will not plant and another eat;
For ^(D)as the ^(a)lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people,
And My chosen ones will ^(E)wear out the work of their hands.

“They will ^(F)not labor in vain,
Or bear children for calamity;
For they are the ^(b)^(G)offspring of those blessed by the Lord,
And their descendants with them.
