Hebrews 8:6-12

New American Standard Bible

⁶But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, to the extent that He is also the ^(A)mediator of ^(B)a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.

A New Covenant

⁷For ^(C)if that first covenant had been free of fault, no ^[a]circumstances would have been sought for a second. ⁸For in finding fault with ^[b]the people, He says,

“^(D)Behold, days are coming, says the Lord,
^[c]When I will bring about ^(E)a new covenant
With the house of Israel and the house of Judah,
⁹^(F)Not like the covenant which I made with their fathers
On the day I took them by the hand
To bring them out of the land of Egypt;
For they did not continue in My covenant,
And I did not care about them, says the Lord.
¹⁰^(G)For this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel
After those days, declares the Lord:
^[d]I will put My laws into their minds,
And write them ^(H)on their hearts.
And I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.
¹¹^(I)And they will not teach, each one his fellow citizen,
And each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
For ^(J)they will all know Me,
From ^[e]the least to the greatest of them.
¹²^(K)For I will be merciful toward their wrongdoings,
^(L)And their sins I will no longer remember.”
