New Testament

Hebrews 8:8-13 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. But God did find fault with them, since he says, Look, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a covenant with the house of Israel, and I will make a new covenant with the house of Judah.

9. It will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors on the day I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not continue to keep my covenant, and I lost interest in them, says the Lord.

10. This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord. I will place my laws in their minds, and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

11. And each person won’t ever teach a neighbor or their brother or sister, saying, "Know the Lord," because they will all know me, from the least important of them to the most important;

12. because I will be lenient toward their unjust actions, and I won’t remember their sins anymore.

13. When it says new, it makes the first obsolete. And if something is old and outdated, it’s close to disappearing.
