Bible: Jer 23:5-6; 33:14-26

23:5I, the Lord, promise 1  that a new time will certainly come 2 

when I will raise up for them a righteous branch, 3  a descendant of David.

He will rule over them with wisdom and understanding 4 

and will do what is just and right in the land. 5 

23:6 Under his rule 6  Judah will enjoy safety 7 

and Israel will live in security. 8 

This is the name he will go by:

‘The Lord has provided us with justice.’ 9 

33:14 Let my lord go on ahead of his servant. I will travel more slowly, at the pace of the herds and the children, 1  until I come to my lord at Seir.”
