This trust have we through Christ to God: not
      that  we  are  sufficient  of  ourselves  to  think
      anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency

      is  of  God;  who  also  has  made  us  able
      ministers  of  the  New  Testament;  not  of
      the letter of the law, but of the spirit: for the
      letter kills, but the spirit gives life.


      11 For if that first covenant had been faultless,
      then no place would have been sought for the
      second.  For  finding  fault  with  them,  he  said:
      Behold, the days  come,  says  the  Lord,  when  I
      will  make  a  new  covenant  with  the  house  of
      Israel  and  with  the  house  of  Judah:  not
      according  to  the  covenant  that  I  made  with

      their  fathers  in  the  day  when  I  took  them  by
      the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt;
      because  they  continued  not  in  my  covenant,
      and I regarded them not, says the Lord.

      For  this  is  the  covenant  that  I  will  make

      with the house of Israel after those days, says
      the Lord; I will put my laws into their minds,

      and write them in their hearts: and I will be
      to  them  a  God,  and  they  shall  be  to  me  a
                              100
