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.
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.
