Jeremiah 31:38-40
1599 Geneva Bible
38 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that the [a]city shall be built to the Lord from the tower of Hananel, unto the gate of the corner.
39 And the line of the measure shall go forth [in] his presence upon the hill Gareb, and shall compass about to Goath.
40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, and unto the corner of the horsegate toward the East, shall be holy unto the Lord, neither shall it be plucked up nor destroyed anymore forever.
