27 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, that aI will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and the seed of beast.
28 And it shall come to pass, that as I have awatched over them bto pluck up, to break down, to throw down, to destroy, and to afflict, so I will watch over them cto build and to plant, says the Lord.
29 aIn those days they shall say no more:
‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
And the children’s teeth are set on edge.’
‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
And the children’s teeth are set on edge.’
30 aBut every one shall die for his own iniquity; every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth shall be set on edge.
A New Covenant
31 “Behold, the adays are coming, says the Lord, when 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 aI took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke,1 though I was a husband to them, says the Lord.
