“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and with the seed of animal.

28

It will happen that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so I will watch over them to build and to plant,” says the LORD.

Selected verse

But everyone will die for his own iniquity. Every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth will be set on edge.

31

“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah,

32

not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, which covenant of mine they broke, although I was a husband to them,” says the LORD.

33

“But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says the LORD:

“I will put my law in their inward parts,

and I will write it in their heart.

I will be their God,

and they shall be my people.
