Jeremiah 31:36-38
1599 Geneva Bible
36 If these ordinances depart out of my sight, saith the Lord, then shall the seed of Israel cease from being a nation before me, forever.
37 Thus saith the Lord, If the heavens can be measured, [a]or the foundations of the earth be searched out beneath, then will I cast off all the seed of Israel, for all that they have done, saith the Lord.
38 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that the [b]city shall be built to the Lord from the tower of Hananel, unto the gate of the corner.
