21 They will build houses and dwell in them;

they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 No longer will they build houses and others live in them,

or plant and others eat.

For as the days of a tree,

so will be the days of my people;

my chosen ones will long enjoy

the work of their hands.

21 They shall build houses and inhabit them;

they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They shall not build and another inhabit;

they shall not plant and another eat;

for like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be,

and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

21 And they shall 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 a tree are the days of my people, And mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

21 In those days people will live in the houses they build

and eat the fruit of their own vineyards.

22 Unlike the past, invaders will not take their houses

and confiscate their vineyards.

For my people will live as long as trees,

and my chosen ones will have time to enjoy their hard-won gains.

21 They shall build houses and inhabit them;

They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They shall not build and another inhabit;

They shall not plant and another eat;

For as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people,

And My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

21 In that city those who build houses will live there.

Those who plant vineyards will get to eat their grapes.

22 No more will one person build a house and someone else live there.

One person will not plant a garden and someone else eat its fruit.

My people will live a long time,

as trees live long.

My chosen people will live there

and enjoy the things they make.

21 And they shall 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 a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof: 22 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 mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

21 They will build houses and live there. 

They will plant vineyards and eat fruit from them. 

22 They will not build homes and have others live there. 

They will not plant and have others eat from it. 

My people will live as long as trees, 

and my chosen ones will enjoy what they’ve done. 

21 People will build houses and live in them;

they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They will not build and others live in them;

they will not plant and others eat.

For My people’s lives will be

like the lifetime of a tree.

My chosen ones will fully enjoy

the work of their hands.

21 And they shall build houses and inhabit them,

and they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They shall not build and another inhabit;

they shall not plant and another eat.

For the days of my people shall be like the days of a tree,

and my chosen ones shall enjoy the work of their hands.

21 My people will build houses and live in them.

They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They will no longer build houses

only to have others live in them.

They will no longer plant crops

only to have others eat them.

My people will live to be as old as trees.

My chosen ones will enjoy for a long time

the things they have worked for.

21 “They will build houses and inhabit them;

They will also plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 “They will not build and another inhabit,

They will not plant and another eat;

For as the lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people,

And My chosen ones will wear out the work of their hands.
