42:6 “I, the Lord, officially commission you; 1
I take hold of your hand.
I protect you 2 and make you a covenant mediator for people, 3
and a light 4 to the nations, 5
54:10 Even if the mountains are removed
and the hills displaced,
my devotion will not be removed from you,
nor will my covenant of friendship 6 be displaced,”
says the Lord, the one who has compassion on you.
“Look, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will complete a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah.
8:9 “It will not be like the covenant 14 that I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they did not continue in my covenant and I had no regard for them, says the Lord.
8:10 “For this is the covenant that I will establish with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord. I will put 15 my laws in their minds 16 and I will inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God and they will be my people. 17
8:11 “And there will be no need at all 18 for each one to teach his countryman or each one to teach his brother saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ since they will all know me, from the least to the greatest. 19
8:12 “For I will be merciful toward their evil deeds, and their sins I will remember no longer.” 20
8:10 “For this is the covenant that I will establish with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord. I will put 21 my laws in their minds 22 and I will inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God and they will be my people. 23
1:1 After God spoke long ago 24 in various portions 25 and in various ways 26 to our ancestors 27 through the prophets, 1:2 in these last days he has spoken to us in a son, 28 whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he created the world. 29 1:3 The Son is 30 the radiance of his glory and the representation of his essence, and he sustains all things by his powerful word, 31 and so when he had accomplished cleansing for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. 32 1:4 Thus he became 33 so far better than the angels as 34 he has inherited a name superior to theirs.
1:5 For to which of the angels did God 35 ever say, “You are my son! Today I have fathered you”? 36 And in another place 37 he says, 38 “I will be his father and he will be my son.” 39 1:6 But when he again brings 40 his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him!” 41 1:7 And he says 42 of the angels, “He makes 43 his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire,” 44 1:8 but of 45 the Son he says, 46
“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, 47
and a righteous scepter 48 is the scepter of your kingdom.
1:9 You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness.
So God, your God, has anointed you over your companions 49 with the oil of rejoicing.” 50
1:10 And,
“You founded the earth in the beginning, Lord, 51
and the heavens are the works of your hands.
1:11 They will perish, but you continue.
And they will all grow old like a garment,
1:12 and like a robe you will fold them up
and like a garment 52 they will be changed,
but you are the same and your years will never run out.” 53
1:13 But to which of the angels 54 has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? 55 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to serve those 56 who will inherit salvation?
