²⁵ This is what the Lord says: ‘If I have not made my covenant with day and night^(A) and established the laws^(B) of heaven and earth,^{(C) 26} then I will reject^(D) the descendants of Jacob^(E) and David my servant and will not choose one of his sons to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes^[a](F) and have compassion^(G) on them.’”
