Forgetting » What the lord will forget
Who is a God like you who pardons iniquity and passes over the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? You do not keep your anger forever, because you delight in loving-kindness (unchanging love). You will again have compassion on us. You will tread our iniquities under foot. You will throw all our sins into the depths of the sea. You will give truth to Jacob, and show loving-kindness (unchanging love) to Abraham. For you have sworn this to our fathers from the days of old.
This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,' said Jehovah: 'I will put my teachings (laws) in their mind, I will write them upon their hearts (deep thought) (understanding). I will be their God, and they will be my people. (Jeremiah 31:32) They will not teach a neighbor or brother saying: Know Jehovah. All will know me from the little one among them to the great among them. (Hosea 2:20) I will forgive their wickedness and I will remember their sins no more.'
Your words and your deeds bring life to everyone, including me. Please make me healthy and strong again. Yes, it was for my benefit that I suffered such distress. In your love you kept me from the pit of destruction. You have put (thrown) (hurled) all my sins behind your back.
Jehovah makes a path through the sea and a road through the strong currents. He leads chariots and horses, an army and reinforcements. They lie down together and do not get up again. They are extinguished and snuffed out like a wick. This is what Jehovah says: Forget what happened in the past, and do not dwell on events from long ago. read more.
I am going to do something new. It is already happening. Do you recognize it? I will clear a way in the desert. I will make rivers on dry land. Wild animals, jackals, and ostriches will honor me. I will provide water in the desert. I will make rivers on the dry land for my chosen people to drink. I have formed these people for myself. They will praise me. Jacob, you have not prayed to me. Israel, you have grown tired of me. You did not bring me sheep for your burnt offerings or honor me with your sacrifices. I did not burden you by requiring grain offerings or trouble you by requiring incense offerings. You did not buy me any sugar cane with your money or satisfy me with the best part of your sacrifices. Rather, you burdened me with your sins and troubled me with your iniquities. I alone am the one who is going to wipe away your rebellious actions for my own sake. I will not remember your sins anymore.

This is the covenant (agreement) that I will make with Israel after those days, declares Jehovah. I will put my teachings (Law) inside them. I will write those teachings (Law) on their hearts (inner man) (mind) (will) (conscience) (understanding). I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will each person teach his neighbors or his relatives by saying: 'Know Jehovah.' All of them, from the least important to the most important, will know me, declares Jehovah. I will forgive their wickedness and I will no longer hold (remember) their sins against them.
This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,' says Jehovah; 'I will put my laws in their hearts, and in their minds will I write them.' (Jeremiah 31:33) I will not remember their sins and unrighteousness. Where there is forgiveness for these, there is no more offering for sin.
hezekiah » King of judah » His psalm of thanksgiving
King Hezekiah of Judah wrote this after he was sick and became well again: I thought that in the prime of my life I would go down to the gates of the grave and be robbed of the rest of my life. I thought that I would not see Jehovah in this world. Even with all the people in the world, I thought I would never see another person. read more.
My life was over. You rolled it up like a shepherd's tent. You rolled up my life like a weaver. You cut me off from the loom. You ended my life in one day. Until morning came, I thought you would crush my bones just like a hungry lion; both night and day you make an end of me. I cry like a swallow (swift). I mourn like a dove. My eyes are red from looking to you, Jehovah. I am terribly abused. Please come and help me. There is nothing I can say in answer to you. For you are the one who has done this to me. My life has turned sour. I will limp until I die. Your words and your deeds bring life to everyone, including me. Please make me healthy and strong again. Yes, it was for my benefit that I suffered such distress. In your love you kept me from the pit of destruction. You have put (thrown) (hurled) all my sins behind your back. For the grave cannot praise you, death cannot sing your praise. Those who go down to the pit cannot hope for your faithfulness. The living, yes the living praise you, as I am doing today! Fathers tell their children about your faithfulness. Jehovah will save me! We will sing with stringed instruments all the days of our lives in the Temple of Jehovah. Isaiah said: Prepare a poultice of figs and apply it to the boil, and he will recover. Hezekiah said: What will be the sign that I will go up to the Temple of Jehovah?

Life » What man lives by
He humbled you (allowed you to suffer) with hunger and then fed you with manna. Neither you nor your fathers had seen this before. He did this to teach you that a person cannot live on bread alone but must live on all (everything) (every word) that proceeds from the mouth of Jehovah.
In reply Jesus answered: It is written; man shall not live on bread alone, but on all (everything) (every word) (every utterance) (every declaration) that proceeds from the mouth of Jehovah. (Deuteronomy 8:3)
