and the Lord God will put you to death.
But he will call his servants by another name.

will ·ask for them from [or be blessed by] the faithful God.
And people in the land who ·make a promise [swear an oath]
will ·promise [swear] ·in the name of the faithful God [or by the one true God],
because the troubles of the past will be forgotten.
·I will make those troubles go away [L …and are hidden from my eyes].
A New Time Is Coming

and people will not remember the ·past [former things]
or ·think about those things [bring them to heart/mind].
