35 Thus says the Lord:
    who provides us with the sun to light our day
    and the moon and the stars to shine at night,
who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar,
    and whose name is the Lord of hosts:

    in my presence, says the Lord,
then the race of Israel would cease forever
    to be a nation before me.

34 No longer will they teach(A) their neighbor,
    or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’

    from the least of them to the greatest,”

    and will remember their sins(D) no more.”

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)

    declares the Lord,
“will Israel(K) ever cease
    being a nation before me.”
