Talk:Jeremiah 31

will I be the God of all the families of Israel,

and they shall be my people.

I am a father to Israel,

and Ephraim is my firstborn.

For the Lord hath redeemed Jacob,

they shall not sorrow any more at all.

A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping;

Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children,

because they were not.

I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel,

and with the house of Judah:

I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:

I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts;

and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour,

and every man his brother,

saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me,

from the least of them unto the greatest of them,

saith the Lord:

for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
