Jeremiah 31:35-37

^{Tools
35}

Thus says the Lord,
Who ^(A)gives the sun for light by day
And the ^(a)fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night,
Who ^(B)stirs up the sea so that its waves roar;
^(C)The Lord of hosts is His name:

“^(D)If ^(b)this fixed order departs
From before Me,” declares the Lord,
“Then the offspring of Israel also will ^(E)cease
From being a nation before Me ^(c)forever.”

^{Tools
37} Thus says the Lord,

“^(F)If the heavens above can be measured
And the foundations of the earth searched out below,
Then I will also ^(G)cast off all the offspring of Israel
For all that they have done,” declares the Lord.
