Jeremiah 31:31-40

31Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saith Jehovah, that I will makeH3772 a newH2319 covenantH1285 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and with the houseH1004 of JudahH3063: 32not according to the covenantH1285 that I madeH3772 with their fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I took them by the handH3027 to bringH3318 them out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714; which my covenantH1285 they brake, although I was a husbandH1166 unto them, saith Jehovah. 33But this is the covenantH1285 that I will makeH5414 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 after those daysH3117, saith Jehovah: I will putH5414 my lawH8451 in their inward parts, and in their heartH3820 will I writeH3789 it; and I will beH1961 their GodH430, and they shall beH1961 my peopleH5971. 34And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighborH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 Jehovah; for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the least of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saith Jehovah: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and their sinH2403 will I rememberH2142 no more.

35ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, who giveth the sunH8121 for a lightH216 by dayH3119, and the ordinances of the moonH3394 and of the starsH3556 for a lightH216 by nightH3915, who stirreth up the seaH3220, so that the waves thereof roarH1993; Jehovah of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034: 36If these ordinances departH4185 from before me, saith Jehovah, then the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 alsoH1571 shall ceaseH7673 from being a nationH1471 before me for ever. 37ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: If heavenH8064 above can be measuredH4058, and the foundationsH4146 of the earthH776 searchedH2713 out beneath, then will I alsoH1571 cast off all the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 for all that they have done, saith Jehovah.

38Behold, the daysH3117 come, saith Jehovah, that the cityH5892 shall be builtH1129 to Jehovah from the towerH4026 of HananelH2606 unto the gateH8179 of the cornerH6438. 39And the measuringH4060 line shall goH3318 out further straight onward unto the hillH1389 GarebH1619, and shall turnH5437 about unto Goah. 40And the whole valleyH6010 of the dead bodies and of the ashesH1880, and all the fields unto the brook KidronH6939, unto the cornerH6438 of the horseH5483 gateH8179 toward the eastH4217, shall be holyH6944 unto Jehovah; it shall not be pluckedH5428 up, nor thrown down any more for everH5769.
