Hebrews 8:8-10
International Children’s Bible
8 But God found something wrong with his people. He says:[a]
“The time is coming, says the Lord,
when I will make a new agreement.
It will be with the people of Israel
and the people of Judah.
9 It will not be like the agreement
I made with their ancestors.
That was when I took them by the hand
to bring them out of Egypt.
But they broke that agreement,
and I turned away from them, says the Lord.
10 In the future I will make this agreement
with the people of Israel, says the Lord.
I will put my teachings in their minds.
And I will write them on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.

8 But God found fault with the people and said[a]:
“The days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant(A)
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
9 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors(B)
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they did not remain faithful to my covenant,
and I turned away from them,
declares the Lord.
10 This is the covenant(C) I will establish with the people of Israel
after that time, declares the Lord.
I will put my laws in their minds
and write them on their hearts.(D)
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.(E)
