Isaiah 54:8-10
8 aIn overflowing anger for a momentI hid my face from you,
bbut with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”
says the Lord, your Redeemer.
9 “This is like cthe days of Noah ▼
▼Some manuscripts For this is as the waters of Noah
to me:as I swore that the waters of Noah
should no more go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you,
and will not rebuke you.
10For the mountains may depart
and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
and emy covenant of peace shall not be removed,”
says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
Jeremiah 31:31-36
The New Covenant
31 f“Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make ga new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when hI took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, ithough I was their husband, declares the Lord. 33 jFor this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: kI will put my law within them, and I will write it lon their hearts. mAnd I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ nfor they shall all know me, ofrom the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For pI will forgive their iniquity, and qI will remember their sin no more.”35 Thus says the Lord,
who rgives the sun for light by day
and sthe fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night,
who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—
tthe Lord of hosts is his name:
36 u“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.”
