A covenant as steady as the hills

9For this is like the waters of Noah to me: just as I swore that the waters of Noah would never again pass over the earth, so I have sworn not to be angry with you and not to rebuke you.

10For the mountains may depart and the hills may be shaken, but my steadfast love will not depart from you, and my covenant of peace will not be shaken, says Yahweh, who has compassion on you.
