Context of Jeremiah 33:14
12“This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: This land—though it is now desolate and has no people and animals—will once more have pastures where shepherds can lead their flocks. 13Once again shepherds will count their flocks in the towns of the hill country, the foothills of Judah, the Negev, the land of Benjamin, the vicinity of Jerusalem, and all the towns of Judah. I, the Lord, have spoken! “The day will come, says the Lord, when I will do for Israel and Judah all the good things I have promised them. 15“In those days and at that time I will raise up a righteous descendant from King David’s line. He will do what is just and right throughout the land. 16In that day Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will live in safety. And this will be its name: ‘The Lord Is Our Righteousness.’
