Isaiah
Isaiah 65:8–9
8This is what the LORD says:
“As the new wine is found in a cluster of grapes,
and men say, ‘Do not destroy it, for it contains a blessing,’
so I will act on behalf of My servants;
I will not destroy them all.
9And I will bring forth descendants from Jacob,
and heirs from Judah;
My elect will possess My mountains,c
and My servants will dwell there.
