“For just as the new heavens and the new earth, which I make, will endure before Me,” declares the Lord, “so will your descendants and your name endure and it shall be from new moon to new moon and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all mankind will come to bow down before Me,” says the Lord. “Then they will go out and look at the corpses of the people who have rebelled against Me. For their worm will not die and their fire will not be extinguished; and they will be an abhorrence to all mankind.”
Isaiah 66:22-24
