Jeremiah 31:23-33 American Standard Version (ASV)

23. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Yet again shall they use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity: Jehovah bless thee, O habitation of righteousness, O mountain of holiness.

24. And Judah and all the cities thereof shall dwell therein together, the husbandmen, and they that go about with flocks.

25. For I have satiated the weary soul, and every sorrowful soul have I replenished.

26. Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me.

27. Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.

28. And it shall come to pass that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so will I watch over them to build and to plant, saith Jehovah.

29. In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.

30. But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grapes, his teeth shall be set on edge.

31. Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:

32. not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was a husband unto them, saith Jehovah.

33. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith Jehovah: I will put my law in their inward parts, and in their heart will I write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people:
