 with the people of Israel, or in some translations they say the house of Israel and the house of Judah. Not like the covenant I made of their ancestors when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them, declares the Lord. This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that day, declares the Lord. I'll put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts, and I'll be their God and they'll be my people.
