Jeremiah 23:3-8

3“Then I Myself will 1gather the remnant of My flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and bring them back to their pasture, and they will be fruitful and multiply. 4I will also raise up 2shepherds over them and they will 3tend them; and they will 4not be afraid any longer, nor be terrified, 5nor will any be missing,” declares the Lord.

5“Behold, the 6days are coming,” declares the Lord, “When I will raise up for David a righteous 78Branch; And He will 9reign as king and 10act wisely And 11do justice and righteousness in the land.6In His days Judah will be saved, And 12Israel will dwell securely; And this is His 13name by which He will be called, ‘The 14Lord our righteousness.’

7“15Therefore behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when they will no longer say, ‘As the Lord lives, who brought up the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt,’ 816but, ‘As the Lord lives, who 17brought up and led back the descendants of the household of Israel from the north land and from all the countries where I had driven them.’ Then they will live on their own soil.”
