American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: There shall yet old men and old women {Or, sit}dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand {Hebrew: for multitude of days.}for very age.
And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days; for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall {Hebrew: wear out.}long enjoy the work of their hands.
Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
And thou shalt keep his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days in the land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, for ever.
But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the marketplaces, who call unto their fellows
and say, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance; we wailed, and ye did not {Greek: beat the beast.}mourn.
