Jeremiah 31:27–34
27 “The days are coming,”q declares the Lord, “when I will plantr the kingdoms of Israel and Judah with the offspring of people and of animals. 28 Just as I watcheds over them to uproott and tear down, and to overthrow, destroy and bring disaster,u so I will watch over them to build and to plant,”v declares the Lord. 29 “In those days people will no longer say,
‘The parentsw have eaten sour grapes,
and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’x
30 Instead, everyone will die for their own sin;y whoever eats sour grapes—their own teeth will be set on edge.
31 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord,
“when I will make a new covenantz
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
32 It will not be like the covenanta
I made with their ancestorsb
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,c
because they broke my covenant,
though I was a husbandd tod them,e”
declares the Lord.
33 “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel
after that time,” declares the Lord.
“I will put my law in their mindse
and write it on their hearts.f
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.g
34 No longer will they teachh their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all knowi me,
from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgivej their wickedness
and will remember their sinsk no more.”
