10 But this is the new covenant I will make
    with the people of Israel on that day,[a] says the Lord:
I will put my laws in their minds,
    and I will write them on their hearts.
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.
11 And they will not need to teach their neighbors,
    nor will they need to teach their relatives,[b]
    saying, ‘You should know the Lord.’
For everyone, from the least to the greatest,
    will know me already.
12 And I will forgive their wickedness,
    and I will never again remember their sins.”[c]

Because of your great compassion,
    blot out the stain of my sins.
Wash me clean from my guilt.

For I recognize my rebellion;
