Jeremiah 31:38-40
Christian Standard Bible
38 “Look, the days are coming”—the Lord’s declaration—“when the city[a] from the Tower of Hananel(A) to the Corner Gate(B) will be rebuilt for the Lord. 39 A measuring line will once again stretch out straight to the hill of Gareb(C) and then turn toward Goah. 40 The whole valley—the corpses, the ashes, and all the fields as far as the Kidron Valley(D) to the corner of the Horse Gate(E) to the east—will be holy to the Lord. It will never be uprooted or demolished again.”

38 The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when the city shall be rebuilt for the Lord from the tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.(A) 39 And the measuring line shall go out farther, straight to the hill Gareb, and shall then turn to Goah. 40 The whole valley of the dead bodies and the ashes and all the fields as far as the Wadi Kidron, to the corner of the Horse Gate toward the east, shall be sacred to the Lord. It shall never again be uprooted or overthrown.(B)
