So when he came into the world, he said, “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me.

So we can say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper, and I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”

Again he says, “I will be confident in him,” and again, “Here I am, with the children God has given me.”

“For this is the covenant that I will establish with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and I will inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God and they will be my people.
