“This is the covenant that I will make with them: ‘After those days,’ says the Lord, ‘I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;’ ” then he says,

I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Yahweh. They will be my people, and I will be their God; for they will return to me with their whole heart.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.

I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”

Then they will be my people, and I will be their God.

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’ ”

Yahweh your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your offspring, to love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live.

He made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.

He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the wicked will be put to silence in darkness; for no man will prevail by strength.

“At that time,” says Yahweh, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
