God’s Reconciliation with Israel

    when I swore that the waters of Noah
        would never again spread over the earth;

    and that I[b] won’t rebuke you.
10 For the mountains may collapse
    and the hills may reel,
but my gracious love will not depart from you,
    neither will my covenant of peace totter,”
