Jeremiah 33:14-26

“Look, the days are coming” — this is the  LORD’s declaration — “when I will fulfill the good promise that I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and the house of Judah.  In those days and at that time I will cause a Righteous Branch  to sprout up for David, and he will administer justice and righteousness in the land. In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely,  and this is what she will be named: The LORD Is Our Righteousness.  “For this is what the LORD says: David will never fail to have a man sitting on the throne of the house of Israel.  The Levitical priests will never fail to have a man always before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to make sacrifices.”  The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah: “This is what the LORD says: If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night so that day and night cease to come at their regular time,  then also my covenant with my servant David  may be broken. If that could happen, then he would not have a son reigning on his throne and the Levitical priests would not be my ministers.  Even as the stars of heaven cannot be counted, and the sand of the sea cannot be measured,  so too I will make innumerable the descendants of my servant David and the Levites who minister to me.” The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah: “Have you not noticed what these people have said? They say, ‘The LORD has rejected the two families he had chosen.’  My people are treated with contempt and no longer regarded as a nation among them. This is what the LORD says: If I do not keep my covenant with the day and with the night, and if I fail to establish the fixed order of heaven and earth,  then I might also reject the descendants of Jacob and of my servant David. That is, I would not take rulers from his descendants to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. But in fact, I will restore their fortunes  and have compassion on them.”
