How would a Catholic approach the Isaiah 65:17-20 and Revelation 21:1-4 contradiction. Isaiah 65:20 seems to imply that there will be still be death on the new earth, but Jesus makes it clear in Revelation 21:4 that death will no longer exist.

Isaiah 65
20 There shall no more be an infant of days there, nor an old man that shall not fill up his days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
Haydock Commentary
Ver. 20. Fill up. To die soon was deemed a misfortune. Ps. liv. 24. Ex. xx. 12. Virtue is the measure of the Christian’s life, and God will reward those who labour even late. Mat. xx. 13.
Accursed. This age will not be spared. Both just and wicked shall be immortal in eternity. Theod.
