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.”
