    with the ·people [L house] of Israel ·at that time [L after those days],” says the Lord:
“I will put my ·teachings [laws; instructions] in their ·minds [L innards]
    and write them on their hearts [Joel 2:28–29].
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people [Ex. 6:6–8].

    to know the Lord,
because all people will know me,
    from the least to the most important,” says the Lord.
“I will forgive them for ·the wicked things they did [L their iniquities],
    and I will not remember their sins anymore [32:37–44; 50:4–5; Ezek. 37:15–28; Luke 22:20; 1 Cor. 11:25; 2 Cor. 3:5–14; Heb. 8:8–12; 10:16–17].”
