Jeremiah 31:31-34
Lexham English Bible
31 Look, the days are coming,” declares[a] Yahweh, “and I will make[b] a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32 not like the covenant that I made[c] with their ancestors[d] on the day of my grasping them[e] by their hand, bringing them out from the land of Egypt, my covenant that they themselves broke, though I myself was a master over them,” declares[f] Yahweh. 33 “But this is the covenant that I will make[g] with the house of Israel after those days,” declares[h] Yahweh: “I will put my law in their inward parts and on their hearts[i] I will write it, and I will be to them God, and they themselves will be to me people. 34 And they will no longer teach each one his neighbor, or each one his brother, saying,[j] ‘Know Yahweh,’ for all of them will know me, from their smallest[k] and up to their greatest,”[l] declares[m] Yahweh, “for I will forgive their iniquity and their sin I will no longer remember.”

The New Covenant
31 “Look, the days are coming”(A)—this is the Lord’s declaration—“when I will make a new covenant(B) with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah. 32 This one will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors on the day I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt—my covenant that they broke even though I am their master”[a](C)—the Lord’s declaration. 33 “Instead, this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days”—the Lord’s declaration. “I will put my teaching within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. 34 No longer will one teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’(D) for they will all know me, from the least to the greatest of them”(E)—this is the Lord’s declaration. “For I will forgive their iniquity(F) and never again remember their sin.
