¹⁸ Also today ^(A)the Lord has proclaimed you to be His special people, just as He promised you, that you should keep all His commandments,

^2 (A)For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

⁶ “For you are a ^[a]holy people to the Lord your God; ^(A)the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.

^9 (A)“The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways.

⁷ I will ^(A)take you as My people, and ^(B)I will be your God. Then you shall know that I am the Lord your God who brings you out ^(C)from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

^14 (A)who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed ^(B)and purify for Himself ^(C)His own special people, zealous for good works.

²⁶ but ^(A)now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for ^(B)obedience to the faith—

^25 (A)Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you ^(B)from all your filthiness and from all your idols. ²⁶ I will give you a ^(C)new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. ²⁷ I will put My ^(D)Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.

³² not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that ^(A)I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, ^[a]though I was a husband to them, says the Lord. ^33 (B)But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: ^(C)I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their ^[b]hearts; ^(D)and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. ³⁴ No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for ^(E)they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For ^(F)I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
