34 No longer will a person teach his neighbor or his relative: ‘Know the Lord.’ Instead, they’ll all know me, from the least to the greatest of them,” declares the Lord. “Indeed, I’ll forgive their iniquity, and I’ll remember their sin no more.”

35 This is what the Lord says,
    who gives the sun for light by day,
the laws that govern the moon and stars for light by night,
    and who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar.

36 “If these laws cease to function in my presence,”
    declares the Lord,
“then the descendants of Israel will cease to be
    a nation in my presence for all time!”
