- the LORD[YHWH]:
- "Now¹ therefore, if¹ ye will obey²° my voice² indeed,ª°¹ and keepª°¹ my covenant,ª then ye shall be¹ a peculiar treasureª unto me above all¹¹ people:ª for¹ all¹ the earthª [is] mine:" {Exd 19:5} + "And he tookª° the bookª of the covenant,ª and readª° in the audienceª of the people:ª and they said,ª° All¹ that¹ the LORDª hath saidª° will we do,ª° and be obedient.ª° ... And Mosesª tookª°¹ the blood,ª and sprinkledª° [it] on¹ the people,ª and said,ª° Behold¹ the bloodª of the covenant,ª which¹ the LORDª hath madeª° with¹ you concerning¹ all¹ these¹ words.ª" {Exd 24:7-8} + "These¹ [are] the wordsª of the covenant,ª which¹ the LORDª commandedª°¹ Mosesª to makeª° with¹ the childrenª of Israelª in the landª of Moab,ª beside¹¹ the covenantª which¹ he madeª° with¹ them in Horeb.ª" {Deu 29:1} + "Ye¹ standª° this dayª all¹ of you beforeª the LORDª your God;ª your captainsª of your tribes,ª your elders,ª and your officers,ª° [with] all¹ the menª of Israel,ª ... Neither¹ with¹ you only¹ do I¹ makeª°¹ this¹ covenantª and this¹ oath;ª" {Deu 29:10-14} + "Behold,¹ the daysª come,ª° saithª° the LORD,ª that I will makeª° a newª covenantª with¹ the houseª of Israel,ª and with¹ the houseª of Judah:ª ... And they shall teachª° no¹ more¹ every manª¹ his neighbour,ª and every manª¹ his brother,ª saying,ª° Knowª°¹ the LORD:ª for¹ they shall all¹ knowª° me, from the leastª¹ of them unto¹ the greatestª of them, saithª° the LORD:ª for¹ I will forgiveª° their iniquity,ª and I will rememberª° their sinª no¹ more.¹" {Jer 31:31-34} + "Butª nowª hath he obtainedª° a more excellentª ministry,ª by how muchª alsoª he isª° the mediatorª of a betterª covenant,ª whichª was establishedª° uponª betterª promises.ª ... In² that he saith,ª° A newª [covenant], he hath made²° the first² old.ª°¹¹ Nowª that which decayethª° andª waxeth oldª° [is] ready² to vanish away.ª¹" {Hbr 8:6-13}
