20 “No more will there be an infant from that place who lives but a few days,

Nor an old man who fails to live out his days.

For anyone who dies at a hundred will be considered a mere boy,

And the sinner will be cursed, even though he is a hundred years of age.*

10 “And you, my servant Jacob, do not be afraid,” declares Jehovah,

“And do not be terrified, O Israel.+

For I will save you from far away

And your offspring from the land of their captivity.+

Jacob will return and be calm and undisturbed,

With no one to make them afraid.”+
