The Permanence of God’s Covenant

19 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 “Thus says the Lord: ‘If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that there will not be day and night in their season,
21 then aMy covenant may also be broken with David My servant, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and with the Levites, the priests, My ministers.  
22 As athe host of heaven cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I bmultiply the descendants of David My servant and the cLevites who minister to Me.’ ”  
23 Moreover the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 “Have you not considered what these people have spoken, saying, ‘The two families which the Lord has chosen, He has also cast them off’? Thus they have adespised My people, as if they should no more be a nation before them.  
25 “Thus says the Lord: ‘If aMy covenant is not with day and night, and if I have not bappointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,  
26 athen I will bcast away the descendants of Jacob and David My servant, so that I will not take any of his descendants to be rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will cause their captives to return, and will have mercy on them.’ ”
