Jeremiah 31:27-34

27“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will 1sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of mankind and the seed of animals. 28And just as I have 2watched over them to 3uproot them, tear them down, ruin, destroy, and bring disaster on them, so I will watch over them to 4build and to plant them,” declares the Lord.29“In those days they will no longer say, ‘5The fathers have eaten sour grapes, 6But it is the children’s teeth that have become blunt.’ 30But 7everyone will die for his own wrongdoing; each person who eats the sour grapes, his own teeth will become blunt.

31“8Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a 9new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, 32not like the 10covenant which I made with their fathers on the day I 11took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My 12covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares the Lord. 33“For 13this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares the Lord: “14I will put My law within them and write it on their heart; and 15I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 34They will 16not teach again, each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they will all 17know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares the Lord, “for I will 18forgive their wrongdoing, and their 19sin I will no longer remember.”
