Jeremiah 31:35-37
New Living Translation
35 It is the Lord who provides the sun to light the day
and the moon and stars to light the night,
and who stirs the sea into roaring waves.
His name is the Lord of Heaven’s Armies,
and this is what he says:
36 “I am as likely to reject my people Israel
as I am to abolish the laws of nature!”
37 This is what the Lord says:
“Just as the heavens cannot be measured
and the foundations of the earth cannot be explored,
so I will not consider casting them away
for the evil they have done.
I, the Lord, have spoken!
Jeremiah 31:35-37
Legacy Standard Bible
35 Thus says Yahweh,
Who (A)gives the sun for light by day
And the statutes for the moon and the stars for light by night,
Who (B)stirs up the sea so that its waves roar;
(C)Yahweh of hosts is His name:
36 “(D)If these statutes are removed
From before Me,” declares Yahweh,
“Then the seed of Israel also will (E)cease
From being a nation before Me [a]forever.”
37 Thus says Yahweh,
“(F)If the heavens above can be measured
And the foundations of the earth searched out below,
Then I will also (G)reject all the seed of Israel
For all that they have done,” declares Yahweh.
