9. It will not be like the agreement that I gave to their fathers. That is the agreement I gave when I took them by the hand and led them out of Egypt. They did not continue following the agreement I gave them, and I turned away from them, says the Lord.
10. This is the new agreement I will give the people of Israel. I will give this agreement in the future, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their minds, and I will write my laws on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
11. Never again will anyone have to teach their neighbors or their family to know the Lord. All people—the greatest and the least important—will know me.
12. And I will forgive the wrongs they have done, and I will not remember their sins.” Jeremiah 31:31-34
13. God called this a new agreement, so he has made the first agreement old. And anything that is old and useless is ready to disappear.
