20 “Thus says Yahweh, ‘If you can (A)break My covenant for the day and My covenant for the night, so that day and night will not be at their appointed time, 21 then (B)My covenant may also be broken with David My servant so that he will not have a son to reign on his throne, and with the Levitical priests, My ministers. 22 As the (C)host of heaven cannot be counted and the (D)sand of the sea cannot be measured, so I will (E)multiply the seed of David My servant and the (F)Levites who minister to Me.’”

23 And the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, saying, 24 “Have you not seen what this people have spoken, saying, ‘The (G)two families which Yahweh chose, He has (H)rejected them’? Thus they have (I)spurned My people from being a nation any longer [a]in their sight. 25 Thus says Yahweh, ‘If My (J)covenant for day and night stand not, and the statutes for heaven and earth I have (K)not established, 26 then I would (L)reject the seed of Jacob and David My servant, [b]not taking from his seed (M)rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. But I will [c](N)return their [d]fortunes and will have (O)compassion on them.’”
