10 This is the agreement I will makewith the people of Israel at that time, says the Lord.I will put my teachings in their mindsand write them on their hearts.I will be their God,and they will be my people.
11 People will no longer have to teach their neighbors and relativesto know the Lord,because all people will know me,from the least to the most important.
12 I will forgive them for the wicked things they did,and I will not remember their sins anymore.”
13 God called this a new agreement, so he has made the first agreement old. And anything that is old and worn out is ready to disappear.
