Jeremiah 31:31-34
English Standard Version
The New Covenant
31 (A)“Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make (B)a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, 32 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when (C)I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, (D)though I was their husband, declares the Lord. 33 (E)For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: (F)I will put my law within them, and I will write it (G)on their hearts. (H)And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ (I)for they shall all know me, (J)from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For (K)I will forgive their iniquity, and (L)I will remember their sin no more.”

Ezekiel 18:21-24
English Standard Version
21 (A)“But if a wicked person turns away from all his sins that he has committed and keeps all my statutes and does (B)what is just and right, (C)he shall surely live; he shall not die. 22 (D)None of the transgressions that he has committed shall be remembered against him; for the righteousness that he has done he shall live. 23 (E)Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, declares the Lord God, and not rather that he should turn from his way and live? 24 (F)But when a righteous person turns away from his righteousness and does injustice and does the same abominations that the wicked person does, shall he live? (G)None of the righteous deeds that he has done shall be remembered; for (H)the treachery of which he is guilty and the sin he has committed, for them he shall die.
