I will give those people the desire to be truly one people. They will have one goal—they will truly want to worship me all their lives. They will truly want to do this, and so will their children.
Those people will ask how to go to Zion. {\cf2\super [409]} \par They will start to go in that direction.\par The people will say,\par ‘Come, let us join ourselves to the Lord.\par Let’s make an agreement\par that will last forever.\par Let’s make an agreement\par that we will never forget.’\par
This promise is for you. It is also for your children and for the people that are far away. It is for every person that the Lord our God calls to himself.”
