33While he was still confined in the guard's courtyard, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah a second time:H1697H3068H3414H8145H6113H2691H4307H5592"The LORD who made the earth, the LORD who forms it to establish it, the LORD is His name, says this:H559H3068H6213H3068H3335H3559H3068H80343Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and wondrous things you do not know.H7121H6030H5046H1419H1219H30454For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and the palaces of Judah's kings, the ones torn down [for defense] against the siege ramps and the sword:H559H3068H430H3478H1004H5892H1004H4428H3063H5422H5550H27195The people coming to fight the Chaldeans will fill the houses with the corpses of [their own] men I strike down in My wrath and rage. I have hidden My face from this city because of all their evil.H935H3898H3778H4390H6297H120H5221H639H2534H7451H5641H6440H58926Yet I will certainly bring health and healing to it and will indeed heal them. I will let them experience the abundance of peace and truth.H5927H724H4832H7495H1540H6283H7965H5717I will restore the fortunes of Judah and of Israel and will rebuild them as in former times.H7622H3063H7622H3478H7725H1129H72238I will purify them from all the wrongs they have committed against Me, and I will forgive all the wrongs they have committed against Me, rebelling against Me.H2891H5771H2398H5545H5771H2398H65869This city will bear on My behalf a name of joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I will do for them. They will tremble with awe because of all the good and all the peace I will bring about for them.H8034H8342H8416H8597H1471H776H8085H2896H6213H6342H7264H2896H7965H621310"This is what the LORD says: In this place which you say is a ruin, without man or beast— that is, in Judah's cities and Jerusalem's streets that are a desolation without man, without inhabitant, and without beast— there will be heard againH559H3068H8085H4725H559H2720H120H929H5892H3063H2351H3389H8074H120H3427H92911a sound of joy and gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the bride, and the voice of those saying, Praise the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His faithful love endures forever as they bring thank offerings to the temple of the LORD. For I will restore the fortunes of the land as in former times, says the LORD.H6963H8342H6963H8057H6963H2860H6963H3618H6963H559H3034H3068H6635H3068H2896H2617H5769H935H8426H1004H3068H7725H7622H776H7223H559H306812"This is what the LORD of Hosts says: In this desolate place— without man or beast— and in all its cities there will once more be a grazing land where shepherds may rest flocks.H559H3068H6635H4725H2720H120H929H5892H5116H7462H6629H725713The flocks will again pass under the hands of the one who counts them in the cities of the hill country, the cities of the Judean foothills, the cities of the Negev, the land of Benjamin— the cities surrounding Jerusalem and Judah's cities, says the LORD.H5892H2022H5892H8219H5892H5045H776H1144H5439H3389H5892H3063H6629H5674H3027H4487H559H3068
God’s Covenant with David
14"Look, the days are coming"— [this is] the LORD's declaration— "when I will fulfill the good promises that I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and the house of Judah.H3117H935H5002H3068H6965H2896H1697H1696H1004H3478H1004H306315In those days and at that time I will cause a Branch of righteousness to sprout up for David, and He will administer justice and righteousness in the land.H3117H6256H6780H6666H6779H1732H6213H4941H6666H77616In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely, and this is what she will be named: The LORD Is Our Righteousness.H3117H3063H3467H3389H7931H983H7121H307217For this is what the LORD says: David will never fail to have a man sitting on the throne of the house of Israel.H559H3068H1732H3808H3772H376H3427H3678H1004H347818The Levitical priests will never fail to have a man always before Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to make sacrifices."H3548H3881H3772H376H6440H5927H5930H6999H4503H6213H2077H311719The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:H1697H3068H3414H55920"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,H559H3068H6565H1285H3117H1285H3915H3119H3915H625621then also My covenant with My servant David may be broken so that he will not have a son reigning on his throne, and the Levitical priests will not be My ministers.H1285H6565H1732H5650H1121H4427H3678H3881H3548H833422The hosts of heaven cannot be counted; the sand of the sea cannot be measured. So, too, I will make the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who minister to Me innumerable."H6635H8064H5608H2344H3220H4058H7235H2233H1732H5650H3881H833423The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:H1697H3068H3414H55924"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.H7200H5971H1696H559H8147H4940H3068H977H3988H5006H5971H1471H644025This is what the LORD says: If I do not [keep] My covenant with the day and with the night and fail to establish the fixed order of heaven and earth,H559H3068H1285H3119H3915H7760H2708H8064H77626then I might also reject the seed of Jacob and of My servant David— not taking from his descendants rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Instead, I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them."H1571H3988H2233H3290H1732H5650H3947H2233H4910H2233H85H3446H3290H7622H7725H7725H7355
