Jeremiah 33:1
|
|
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah
the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying, |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:2 |
|
Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD
that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name; |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:3 |
|
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show
thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:4 |
|
For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel,
concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of
Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword; |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:5 |
|
They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but it
is to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in mine anger and
in my fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:6 |
|
Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and
I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:7 |
|
And I will cause the captivity of Judah and
the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:8 |
|
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity,
whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby
they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:9 |
|
And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise
and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good
that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and
for all the prosperity that I procure unto it. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:10 |
|
Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard
in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even
in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without
man, and without inhabitant, and without beast, |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:11 |
|
The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness,
the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that
shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth
for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house
of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first,
saith the LORD. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:12 |
|
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this
place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities
thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:13 |
|
In the cities of the mountains, in the cities
of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and
in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass
again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:14 |
|
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that
I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel
and to the house of Judah. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:15 |
|
In those days, and at that time, will I cause
the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment
and righteousness in the land. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:16 |
|
In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem
shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD
our righteousness. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:17 |
|
For thus saith the LORD; David shall never
want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:18 |
|
Neither shall the priests the Levites want
a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to
do sacrifice continually. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:19 |
|
And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah,
saying, |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:20 |
|
Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant
of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and
night in their season; |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:21 |
|
Then may also my covenant be broken with David
my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the
Levites the priests, my ministers. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:22 |
|
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither
the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant,
and the Levites that minister unto me. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:23 |
|
Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah,
saying, |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:24 |
|
Considerest thou not what this people have spoken,
saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off?
thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before
them. |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:25 |
|
Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with
day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; |
|
|
|
Jeremiah 33:26 |
|
Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob and
David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the
seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return,
and have mercy on them. |
