25. And, behold, they have been cast out into the heat of the sun and the frost of the night, and they have died by means of grievous evils, by famine, and by the sword, and by banishment.
26. And you have set up the temple, in which your name itself was called upon, just as it is on this day, because of the iniquity of the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
27. And you have accomplished in us, O Lord our God, according to all your goodness and according to all your great mercy,
28. just as you spoke by the hand of your child Moses, in the day when you commanded him to write your law before the sons of Israel,
29. saying: "If you will not listen to my voice, this great multitude will be changed into the least among the peoples, where I will scatter them.
30. For I know that the people will not listen to me, for the people are stiff necked. But they will have a change of their heart in the land of their captivity,
31. and they will know that I am the Lord their God. And I will give them a heart, and they will understand, ears, and they will hear.
32. And they will praise me in the land of their captivity, and will remember my name.
33. And they will turn themselves away from their stiff back, and from their wicked deeds, for they will call to mind the way of their fathers, who sinned against me.
34. And I will restore them to the land which I pledged to their fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and they will rule over it, and I will multiply them, and they will not be diminished.
35. And I will establish for them a new and everlasting covenant, so that I will be their God and they will be my people. And I will no longer move my people, the sons of Israel, out of the land which I have given them."
