Jeremiah 31:23-36

23Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; As yet they shall useH559 this speechH1697 in the landH776 of JudahH3063 and in its citiesH5892, when I shall bring againH7725 their captivesH7622; The LORDH3068 blessH1288 thee, O habitationH5116 of justiceH6664, mountainH2022 of holinessH6944. 24And there shall dwellH3427 in JudahH3063 itself, and in all its citiesH5892 togetherH3162, farmersH406, and they that go forthH5265 with flocksH5739. 25For I have abundantly satisfiedH7301 the wearyH5889 soulH5315, and I have replenishedH4390 every sorrowfulH1669 soulH5315. 26Upon this I awokeH6974, and beheldH7200; and my sleepH8142 was sweetH6149 to me.

27Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will sowH2232 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 with the seedH2233 of manH120, and with the seedH2233 of beastH929. 28And it shall come to pass, that as I have watched overH8245 them, to pluck upH5428, and to break downH5422, and to throw downH2040, and to destroyH6, and to afflictH7489; so will I watch overH8245 them, to buildH1129, and to plantH5193, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. 29In those daysH3117 they shall sayH559 no more, The fathersH1 have eatenH398 a sour grapeH1155, and the children’sH1121 teethH8127 are set on edgeH6949. 30But every oneH376 shall dieH4191 for his own iniquityH5771: every manH120 that eatethH398 the sour grapeH1155, his teethH8127 shall be set on edgeH6949. 31Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, 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 tookH2388 them by the handH3027 to bring them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714; which my covenantH1285 they brokeH6565, although I was an husbandH1166 to them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068:1 33But this shall be the covenantH1285 that I will makeH3772 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; AfterH310 those daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will putH5414 my lawH8451 in their inward partsH7130, and writeH3789 it in their heartsH3820; and will be their GodH430, and they shall be my peopleH5971. 34And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them to the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.

35Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, who givethH5414 the sunH8121 for a lightH216 by dayH3119, and the ordinancesH2708 of the moonH3394 and of the starsH3556 for a lightH216 by nightH3915, who dividethH7280 the seaH3220 when its wavesH1530 roarH1993; The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034: 36If those ordinancesH2706 departH4185 from beforeH6440 me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, then the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 also shall ceaseH7673 from being a nationH1471 beforeH6440 me for everH3117.
