16 “But when those days are over,” says the Eternal One, “I will make
    this kind of covenant with the people of Israel:
I will put My laws in their hearts
    and write them upon their minds,”[a]

then He adds,

17 I will erase their sins and wicked acts out of My memory
    as though they had never existed.[b]

15 The Holy Spirit also testifies(A) to us about this. First he says:

16 “This is the covenant I will make with them
    after that time, says the Lord.
I will put my laws in their hearts,
    and I will write them on their minds.”[a](B)

17 Then he adds:

“Their sins and lawless acts
    I will remember no more.”[b](C)

18 And where these have been forgiven, sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary.
