Jeremiah 33:14-21

14“The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will keep the promise that I made to Israel and Judah.

15In those days and at that time, I will cause a righteous branch to spring up for David. He will do what is fair and right in the land.

16In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will live securely. Jerusalem will be called The Lord Our Righteousness.

17“This what the Lord says: David will never fail to have a descendant sitting on the throne of Israel.

18The Levitical priests will never fail to have a descendant in my presence to sacrifice burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to prepare daily sacrifices.”

19The Lord spoke his word to Jeremiah. He said,

20“This is what the Lord says: Suppose you could break my arrangement  with day and night so that they wouldn’t come at their proper time.

21Then my arrangement with my servant David could be broken, and he would not have a descendant to rule on his throne. The arrangement with my servants the Levitical priests could also be broken.
