Jeremiah 31:34-36
1599 Geneva Bible
34 And they shall [a]teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and will remember their sins no more.
35 Thus saith the Lord, which giveth [b]the sun for a light to the day, and the courses of the moon and of the stars for a light to the night, which breaketh the sea, when the waves thereof roar: his Name is the Lord of hosts.
36 If these ordinances depart out of my sight, saith the Lord, then shall the seed of Israel cease from being a nation before me, forever.

- Jeremiah 31:34 Under the kingdom of Christ there shall be none blinded with ignorance, but I will give them faith, and knowledge of God for remission of their sins and daily increase the same: so that it shall not seem to come so much by the preaching of my ministers, as by the instruction of my holy Spirit, Isa. 54:13, but the full accomplishing hereof is referred to the kingdom of Christ, when we shall be joined with our head.
- Jeremiah 31:35 If the sun, moon and stars cannot but give light according to mine ordinance, so long as this world lasteth, so shall my Church never fail, neither shall anything hinder it: and as sure as I will have a people, so certain is it, that I will leave them my word forever to govern them with.
Jeremiah 31:34-36
New International Version
34 No longer will they teach(A) their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know(B) me,
from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgive(C) their wickedness
and will remember their sins(D) no more.”
35 This is what the Lord says,
he who appoints(E) the sun
to shine by day,
who decrees the moon and stars
to shine by night,(F)
who stirs up the sea(G)
so that its waves roar(H)—
the Lord Almighty is his name:(I)
36 “Only if these decrees(J) vanish from my sight,”
declares the Lord,
“will Israel(K) ever cease
being a nation before me.”
