18. “At that time I will make a covenant for them with the wild animals, the birds of the air, and the creatures that crawl on the ground. I will abolish the warrior’s bow and sword – that is, every weapon of warfare – from the land, and I will allow them to live securely.”
19. I will commit myself to you forever; I will commit myself to you in righteousness and justice, in steadfast love and tender compassion.
