Well this One is pretty easy to answer, in Jeremiah 31 it Not a re-new One Because in The plan context, God says it will be a different One, that should put that to rest, even with the word " new" in Jeremiah 31, it simple means " new" It can mean to renew if verb is used , Not The objective but the objective is used , also The Phonetic Spelling is different.
here is The word that is used for Jeremiah 31

also The Greek word kainos is used to refer to The New Covenant in the greek, it has no possible meaning to re-new, it means New in the sense of looking back to replace something, Neos another word for New means something that is but Not long had it been, either way neither word means re-new
also let me quote book of hebrews
Hebrews 8:7-13
New International Version (NIV)
7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another. 8 But God found fault with the people and said[a]:
“The days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
9 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they did not remain faithful to my covenant,
and I turned away from them,
declares the Lord.
10 This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel
after that time, declares the Lord.
I will put my laws in their minds
and write them on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
11 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
12 For I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins no more.”[b]
13 By calling this covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear.
Let me deal with The argument that verse 13 that Covenant is not in the original, Some would say verse 13 means Priesthood but do we get that from all full surrounding context, I mean Just read 8 :7-13 through, it is talking about The Covenant not The Priesthood and also Priesthood is not in The original in verse 13 and is neither at all mention in the whole chapter of 8 but everything is base around The Covenant it self.
God bless all
