Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
I'm going to make a peace deal with them that lasts forever, like, actually forever. I'll give them a place to belong, help them grow and thrive, and put my holy presence right there in the center of their lives for good.
God's promising a forever home where peace isn't just a moment, but the whole vibe.

This verse specifically promises an everlasting covenant of peace, including God's commitment to resettle and multiply His people while establishing His sanctuary among them forever.
