And I will prepare an agreement between you and me. This agreement will also be for all your descendants. This agreement will continue forever. I will be your God and the God of all your descendants.
It will not be like the Agreement I made with their ancestors. {\cf2\super [260]} I made that Agreement when I took them by the hand and brought them out of Egypt. I was their Master, but they broke that Agreement.” This message is from the Lord.
Jeremiah, this is what the Lord, the God of the people of Israel, says: “I brought your ancestors {\cf2\super [285]} out of the land of Egypt, where they were slaves. When I did that, I made an Agreement with them.
I tell you the truth. Many prophets {\cf2\super [182]} and good people wanted to see the things that you now see. But they did not see these things. And many prophets and good people wanted to hear the things that you now hear. But they did not hear these things.
The Lord made an agreement with the people of Israel at Mount Horeb (Sinai). In addition to that agreement, the Lord also commanded Moses to make another agreement with them while they were in Moab. This is that agreement.
