New King James Version
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.’ ”

40 ‘But (A)if they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, with their unfaithfulness in which they were unfaithful to Me, and that they also have walked contrary to Me,
41 and that I also have walked contrary to them and have brought them into the land of their enemies;
if their (B)uncircumcised hearts are (C)humbled, and they (D)accept their guilt—
42 then I will (E)remember My covenant with Jacob, and My covenant with Isaac and My covenant with Abraham I will remember;
I will (F)remember the land.
43 (G)The land also shall be left empty by them, and will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies desolate without them;
they will accept their guilt, because they (H)despised My judgments and because their soul abhorred My statutes.
44 Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, (I)I will not cast them away, nor shall I abhor them, to utterly destroy them and break My covenant with them;
for I am the Lord their God.
45 But (J)for their sake I will remember the covenant of their ancestors, (K)whom I brought out of the land of Egypt (L)in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God:
I am the Lord.’ ”
