27 Wasethatha inkomitsho wabonga uNkulunkulu, wabapha esithi: “Nathani kuyo lonke+ 28 ngoba lokhu kumela ‘igazi lami+ lesivumelwano’+ elizachithwa ngenxa yabanengi+ ukuze bathethelelwe izono.+

20 Bathe sebeqedile ukudla, wenza njalo langenkomitsho, wathi: “Inkomitsho le imela isivumelwano esitsha+ esizakwenziwa ngegazi lami+ elizachithwa ngenxa yenu.+

25 Bathe sebeqedile ukudla, yenza njalo langenkomitsho+ yathi: “Inkomitsho le imela isivumelwano esitsha+ esizakwenziwa ngegazi lami.+ Qhubekani likwenza lokhu loba nini nxa liyinatha, lingikhumbula.”+

8 Kodwa yena uyasithola isici ebantwini bakhe lapho esithi: “‘Khangelani! Ziyeza insuku,’ kutsho uJehova,* ‘lapho engizakwenza khona isivumelwano esitsha lendlu yako-Israyeli lendlu yakoJuda. 9 Isivumelwano lesi asisoze sifanane laleso engasenza labokhokho babo ngelanga engababamba ngesandla ngibakhipha elizweni laseGibhithe+ ngoba abazange bahlale besesivumelwaneni sami, yikho ngayekela ukubanakekela,’ kutsho uJehova.*

10 “‘Nansi isivumelwano engizasenza labendlu ka-Israyeli ngemva kwensuku lezo,’ kutsho uJehova.* ‘Ngizafaka imithetho yami ezingqondweni zabo, ngiyibhale ezinhliziyweni zabo+ njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo bona babe ngabantu bami.+

11 “‘Ngamunye wabo kasoze aphinde afundise umakhelwane wakhe loba umfowabo esithi: “Mazi uJehova!”* ngoba bonke bazangazi kusukela komncane kusiya komkhulu. 12 Ngizakuba lesihawu ngibathethelele izenzo zabo ezingalunganga njalo angisoze ngibe ngisazikhumbula izono zabo.’”+
