Jeremiah 31:31-40
31
o "Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make p a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah,
32
not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when q I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, r though I was their husband, declares the Lord.
33
s But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: s I will put my law within them, and I will write it t on their hearts. u And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34
And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' v for they shall all know me, w from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For x I will forgive their iniquity, and y I will remember their sin no more."
35
Thus says the Lord,
who z gives the sun for light by day
and a the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night,
who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar -
b the Lord of hosts is his name:
36
c "If this fixed order departs
from before me, declares the Lord,
then shall the offspring of Israel cease
from being a nation before me forever."
37
Thus says the Lord:
"If the heavens above can be measured,
and the foundations of the earth below can be explored,
d then I will cast off all the offspring of Israel
for all that they have done,
declares the Lord."
38
e "Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when the city shall be rebuilt for the Lord f from the Tower of Hananel to g the Corner Gate.
39
h And the measuring line shall go out farther, straight to the hill Gareb, and shall then turn to Goah.
40
i The whole valley of the dead bodies and the ashes, and all the fields as far as the j brook Kidron, to the corner of k the Horse Gate toward the east, l shall be sacred to the Lord. m It shall not be uprooted or overthrown anymore forever."
