10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the ^aLord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and ^bI will be their God, and they shall be My people.  ‡

11 ^aNone of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the ^bLord,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.  ‡

12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, ^aand their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”  ‡
