Jeremiah 31:33-40 ▼

33 “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel, after those days, a declaration of YHWH: I will give My law in their inward parts, and I will write it upon their hearts; and I will be their God, and they will be My people.

34 And they will teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know YHWH; for all of them will know Me, from the least of them and to the greatest of them, a declaration of YHWH. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”

35 Thus says YHWH, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea when its waves roar—YHWH of Hosts is His name:

36 “If these ordinances depart from before Me, a declaration of YHWH, even the seed of Israel will cease from being a nation before Me all the days.”

37 Thus says YHWH: “If the heavens above could be measured, and the foundations of the earth below searched out, also I will cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done,” a declaration of YHWH.

38 “Behold,” the days, declares YHWH, “That the city will be built for YHWH, from the Tower of Hananel to the Gate of the Corner.

39 And the measuring line will go again straight over the hill Gareb, and then turn toward Goah.

40 And all the valley of the carcasses and the ashes, and all the fields as far as the Valley of Kidron to the corner of the Gate of the Horse toward the east, are holy unto YHWH; it will not be plucked up and not thrown down anymore forever.
