Jeremiah

Jeremiah 23:5–6

5Behold, the days are coming,

declares the LORD,

when I will raise up for Davida

a righteous Branch,

and He will reign wisely as King

and will administer justice and righteousness in the land.

6In His days Judah will be saved,

and Israel will dwell securely.

And this is His name by which He will be called:

The LORD Our Righteousness.b
