Isaiah 65:22
Douay-Rheims
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 the works of their hands shall be of long continuance.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
A tree vigorous and strong presents an apt image of great age. The enjoyment of earthly posses* sions is a type of better goods. m The text signifies that their works shall grow old in their lifetime.
