As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
As for me, this is my promise to them, says the LORD: My Spirit that is with you, and my words that I have placed in your mouth, will never leave your mouth, or the mouths of your children, or the mouths of your children's children, says the LORD, from now on and forever.
God is promising that His Spirit and His words will remain with His people and be passed down through every generation forever.
