Jeremiah 31:36-38
Contemporary English Version
36 I will never forget

and I will never let Israel
stop being a nation.

37 Can you measure the heavens?

the depths of the earth?
That's how hard it would be
for me to reject Israel forever,
even though they have sinned.
I, the Lord, have spoken.

Someday, Jerusalem will truly belong to me. It will be rebuilt with a boundary line running from Hananel Tower to Corner Gate.
