And this is the testament which I will make unto them after those days, saith the Lord. I will give my laws in their hearts, and on their minds will I write them:

Yesterday thou camest, and to-day shalt thou be forced to go forth with us? But I shall go whither I am going: return thou, and take back thy brethren with thee. And the Lord will shew thee mercy, and truth, because thou hast shewn grace and fidelity.
