And so Job died. He had lived for a very long time.

But you have come to Mount Zion. You have come to the city of the living God. This is the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to a joyful gathering of angels. There are thousands and thousands of them.

The time is coming when I will cut your life short. I will also cut short the lives of those in your family line of priests. No one in your family line will grow old.

Our women have been treated badly in Zion. Our virgins have been treated badly in the towns of Judah.Our princes have been hung up by their hands. No one shows our elders any respect.Our young men are forced to grind grain at the mill. Our boys almost fall down as they carry heavy loads of wood.Our elders don’t go to the city gate anymore. Our young men have stopped playing their music.There isn’t any joy in our hearts. Our dancing has turned into mourning.

You will go down to the grave while you are still very strong. You will be like a crop that is gathered at the right time.

“ Babies in Jerusalem will no longer live only a few days. Old people will not fail to live for a very long time. Those who live to the age of 100 will be thought of as mere children when they die. Those who die before they are 100 will be considered as having been under God’s curse.My people will build houses and live in them. They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.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.

Jerusalem says,“ Lord, look at me. Think about my condition. Have you ever treated anyone else like this? Should women have to eat their babies? Should they eat the children they’ve taken care of? Should priests and prophets be killed in your own temple?“ Young people and old people alike lie dead in the dust of my streets. My young men and women have been killed by swords. You killed them when you were angry. You put them to death without pity.“ You sent for terrors to come against me on every side. It was as if you were inviting people to enjoy a feast day. Because you were angry, no one escaped. No one was left alive. I took good care of my children and brought them up. But my enemies have destroyed them.”
