Jeremiah 31:31-34

Jeremiah 31:31-34

My bride is you,
The House of the North,
And the House of the South.
A newer pact with you I now bring forth.

My new agreement is an eternal act,
Something intended in My original law,
Broken by both ancestors’ tract:
The letter, not the heart, they held in awe.

Those were the days past.
The new law I now impart,
An agreement to last,
Because I write it on your heart.

No more teaching about Me to your neighbor,
No more approaching your brother.
For in the future there will be no labor:
I will forgive your iniquity, and sin I will smother.
