Jeremiah 33:14-16 (Common English Bible)

14 The time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will fulfill my gracious promise with the people of Israel and Judah. 15 In those days and at that time, I will raise up a righteous branch from David’s line, who will do what is just and right in the land.16 In those days, Juda

h will be saved and Jerusalem will live in safety. And this is what he will be called: The Lord Is Our Righteousness.
