NOT LIKE THE COVENANT WHICH I MADE WITH THEIR FATHERS
ON THE DAY WHEN I TOOK THEM BY THE HAND
TO LEAD THEM OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT;

FOR ALL WILL KNOW ME,
FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST OF THEM.

AND I WILL REMEMBER THEIR SINS NO MORE.”
AND I WILL REMEMBER THEIR SINS NO MORE.”
Because I will be merciful to their unrighteousnesses, and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will never remember any more.
