Jeremiah 31:23-36

23This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559: “When I restoreH7725 themH853 from captivityH7622,1 they will once againH5750 speakH559 thisH2088 wordH1697 in the landH776 of JudahH3063 and in its citiesH5892: ‘May the LORDH3068 bless youH1288, O righteousH6664 dwelling placeH5116, O holyH6944 mountainH2022.’ 24And JudahH3063 and allH3605 its citiesH5892 will dwellH3427 togetherH3162 in the land, the farmersH406 and those who moveH5265 with the flocksH5739, 25forH3588 I will refreshH7301 the wearyH5889 soulH5315 and replenishH4390 allH3605 H5315 who are weakH1669.”

26AtH5921 thisH2063 I awokeH6974 and looked aroundH7200. My sleepH8142 had been most pleasantH6149 to me.

“The daysH3117 are comingH935,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068, “when I will sowH2232 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 with the seedH2233 of manH120 and of beastH929. 28 Just asH834 I watchedH8245 over themH5921 to uprootH5428 and tear downH5422, to demolishH2040, destroyH6, and bring disasterH7489, soH3651 I will watchH8245 over themH5921 to buildH1129 and to plantH5193,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.

29“In thoseH1992 daysH3117, it will noH3808 longerH5750 be saidH559:

‘The fathersH1 have eatenH398 sour grapesH1155,and the teethH8127 of the childrenH1121 are set on edgeH6949.’

30InsteadH3588 H518, eachH376 will dieH4191 for his own iniquityH5771. If anyoneH3605 H120 eatsH398 the sour grapesH1155, his own teethH8127 will be set on edgeH6949.

31BeholdH2009, the daysH3117 are comingH935, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,when I will makeH3772 a newH2319 covenantH1285withH854 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478and withH854 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063.32It will notH3808 be like the covenantH1285 I madeH3772 withH854 their fathersH1whenH3117 I took themH2388 by the handH3027to lead themH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 —a covenantH1285 theyH1992 brokeH6565 ,though IH595 was a husbandH1166 to them,2”declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.33“ButH3588 thisH2063 is the covenantH1285 I will makeH3772 withH854 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478afterH310 thoseH1992 daysH3117, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.I will putH5414 My lawH8451 in their mindsH7130and inscribe itH3789 onH5921 their heartsH3820.And I will beH1961 their GodH430,and theyH1992 will beH1961 My peopleH5971.34NoH3808 longerH5750 will each manH376 teachH3925 his neighborH7453 or his brotherH251,sayingH559, ‘KnowH3045 the LORDH3068,’becauseH3588 they will allH3605 knowH3045 MeH853,from the least of themH6996 toH5704 the greatestH1419, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.ForH3588 I will forgiveH5545 their iniquitiesH5771and will rememberH2142 their sinsH2403 noH3808 moreH5750.”3

35ThusH3541 saysH559 the LORDH3068, who givesH5414 the sunH8121 for lightH216 by dayH3119, who sets in orderH2708 the moonH3394 and starsH3556 for lightH216 by nightH3915, who stirs upH7280 the seaH3220 so that its wavesH1530 roarH1993—the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 is His nameH8034:

36“Only ifH518 thisH428 fixed orderH2706 departedH4185 from My presenceH6440,declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,would Israel’sH3478 descendantsH2233 everH3605 H3117 ceaseH7673to beH1961 a nationH1471 before MeH6440.”
