The New Covenant

31 ^m“Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make ⁿa 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 ^oI took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, ^pthough I was their husband, declares the Lord. 33 ^qFor this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: ^rI will put my law within them, and I will write it ^son their hearts. ^tAnd 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,’ ^ufor they shall all know me, ^vfrom the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For ^wI will forgive their iniquity, and ^xI will remember their sin no more.”

Jeremiah 32:40-42

40 ^yI will make with them an everlasting covenant, that I will not turn away from doing good to them. ^zAnd I will put the fear of me in their hearts, that they may not turn from me. 41 ^aaI will rejoice in doing them good, ^aband I will plant them in this land in faithfulness, with all my heart and all my soul.

42 “For thus says the Lord: ^acJust as I have brought all this great disaster upon this people, so I will bring upon them all the good that I promise them.

Ezekiel 16:60-63

60 yet ^adI will remember my covenant with you ^aein the days of your youth, ^afand I will establish for you an everlasting covenant. 61 ^agThen you will remember your ways ^ahand be ashamed when you take ^aiyour sisters, both your elder and your younger, and I give them to you ^ajas daughters, but not on account of ^{▼▼Or not apart from} the covenant with you. 62 I will establish my covenant with you, ^aland you shall know that I am the Lord, 63 that you may remember and be confounded, and ^amnever open your mouth again because of your shame, when I atone for you for all that you have done, declares the Lord God.”
