Hebrews 8:7-9
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need to look for a second one.
8 God[a] finds fault with them when he says:
‘The days are surely coming, says the Lord,
when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel
and with the house of Judah;
9 not like the covenant that I made with their ancestors,
on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt;
for they did not continue in my covenant,
and so I had no concern for them, says the Lord.
