11And they will not need to teach their neighbors,

nor will they need to teach their relatives,^d

saying, ‘You should know the Lord.’

For everyone, from the least to the greatest,

will know me already.

12And I will forgive their wickedness,

and I will never again remember their sins.”^e

13When God speaks of a “new” covenant, it means he has made the first one obsolete. It is now out of date and will soon disappear.
