⁷ And I will ^(A)establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, ^(B)to be God to you and ^(C)your descendants after you. ⁸ Also ^(D)I give to you and your descendants after you the land ^(E)in^[a] which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and ^(F)I will be their God.”

¹⁰ For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the ^(A)Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and ^(B)I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

²⁰ “Thus says the Lord: ‘If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that there will not be day and night in their season, ²¹ then ^(A)My covenant may also be broken with David My servant, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and with the Levites, the priests, My ministers. ²² As ^(B)the host of heaven cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I ^(C)multiply the descendants of David My servant and the ^(D)Levites who minister to Me.’ ”

²³ Moreover the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying, ²⁴ “Have you not considered what these people have spoken, saying, ‘The two families which the Lord has chosen, He has also cast them off’? Thus they have ^(E)despised My people, as if they should no more be a nation before them.

²⁵ “Thus says the Lord: ‘If ^(F)My covenant is not with day and night, and if I have not ^(G)appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth, ^26 (H)then I will ^(I)cast away the descendants of Jacob and David My servant, so that I will not take any of his descendants to be rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will cause their captives to return, and will have mercy on them.’ ”
