not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers,
    in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt;
for they didn’t continue in my covenant,
    and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
10 “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel.
    After those days,” says the Lord;
“I will put my laws into their mind,
    I will also write them on their heart.
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.
11 They will not teach every man his fellow citizen,[a]
    and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
    for all will know me,
    from their least to their greatest.

  1. 8:11 TR reads “neighbor” instead of “fellow citizen”

It will not be like the covenant
    I made with their ancestors(A)
when I took them by the hand
    to lead them out of Egypt,
because they did not remain faithful to my covenant,
    and I turned away from them,
declares the Lord.
10 This is the covenant(B) I will establish with the people of Israel
    after that time, declares the Lord.
I will put my laws in their minds
    and write them on their hearts.(C)
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.(D)
11 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
    or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,(E)
    from the least of them to the greatest.
