The New Covenant Foretold

7

For if that former had been faultless, there should not indeed a place have been sought for a second.

8

For, finding fault with them, he saith: Behold the days shall come, saith the Lord: and I will perfect, unto the house of Israel and unto the house of Juda, a new testament:

9

Not according to the testament which I made to their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt: because they continued not in my testament: and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

10

For this is the testament which I will make to the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will give my laws into their mind: and in their heart will I write them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people.

11

And they shall not teach every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying: Know the Lord. For all shall know me, from the least to the greatest of them.

12

Because I will be merciful to their iniquities: and their sins I will remember no more.

13

Now in saying a new, he hath made the former old. And that which decayeth and groweth old is near its end.
