Hebrews 8:6-8
New King James Version
6 But now (A)He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a (B)better covenant, which was established on better promises.
A New Covenant(C)
7 For if that (D)first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. 8 Because finding fault with them, He says: (E)“Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah—

6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, to the extent that He is also the (A)mediator of (B)a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
A New Covenant
7 For (C)if that first covenant had been free of fault, no [a]circumstances would have been sought for a second. 8 For in finding fault with [b]the people, He says,
“(D)Behold, days are coming, says the Lord,
[c]When I will bring about (E)a new covenant
With the house of Israel and the house of Judah,

6 But as it is, Christ has acquired a [priestly] ministry which is more excellent [than the old Levitical priestly ministry], for He is the Mediator (Arbiter) of a better covenant [uniting God and man], which has been enacted and rests on better promises.
A New Covenant
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion for a second one or an attempt to institute another one [the new covenant]. 8 However, God finds fault with them [showing its inadequacy] when He says,
“Behold, the days will come, says the Lord,
When I will make and ratify a new covenant
With the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;

6 But in fact the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant(A) of which he is mediator(B) is superior to the old one, since the new covenant is established on better promises.
7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another.(C) 8 But God found fault with the people and said[a]:
“The days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant(D)
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.

6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the (A)Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and (B)I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 11 (C)None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the (D)Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. 12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, (E)and their sins [a]and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
After those days, says the Lord:
I will imprint My laws upon their minds [even upon their innermost thoughts and understanding],
And engrave them upon their hearts [effecting their regeneration].
And I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.

“And it will not be [necessary] for each one to teach his fellow citizen,
Or each one his brother, saying, ‘Know [by experience, have knowledge of] the Lord,’
For all will know [Me by experience and have knowledge of] Me,
From the least to the greatest of them.
