Jeremiah 33 (ESV) English Standard Version

1 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah a second time, while he was still shut up in the court of the guard:
2 "Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it to establish it- the LORD is his name:
3 Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.
4 For thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city and the houses of the kings of Judah that were torn down to make a defense against the siege mounds and against the sword:
5 They are coming in to fight against the Chaldeans and to fill them with the dead bodies of men whom I shall strike down in my anger and my wrath, for I have hidden my face from this city because of all their evil.
6 Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security.
7 I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and rebuild them as they were at first.
8 I will cleanse them from all the guilt of their sin against me, and I will forgive all the guilt of their sin and rebellion against me.
9 And this city shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth who shall hear of all the good that I do for them. They shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the prosperity I provide for it.
10 "Thus says the LORD: In this place of which you say, 'It is a waste without man or beast,' in the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate, without man or inhabitant or beast, there shall be heard again
11 the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voices of those who sing, as they bring thank offerings to the house of the LORD: "' Give thanks to the LORD of hosts, for the LORD is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!' For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the LORD.
12 "Thus says the LORD of hosts: In this place that is waste, without man or beast, and in all of its cities, there shall again be habitations of shepherds resting their flocks.
13 In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the Shephelah, and in the cities of the Negeb, in the land of Benjamin, the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, flocks shall again pass under the hands of the one who counts them, says the LORD.
14 "Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
15 In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring up for David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16 In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: 'The LORD is our righteousness.'
17 "For thus says the LORD: David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,
18 and the Levitical priests shall never lack a man in my presence to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to make sacrifices forever."
19 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
20 "Thus says the LORD: If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night, so that day and night will not come at their appointed time,
21 then also my covenant with David my servant may be broken, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests my ministers.
22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered and the sands of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant, and the Levitical priests who minister to me."
23 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
24 "Have you not observed that these people are saying, 'The LORD has rejected the two clans that he chose'? Thus they have despised my people so that they are no longer a nation in their sight.
25 Thus says the LORD: If I have not established my covenant with day and night and the fixed order of heaven and earth,
26 then I will reject the offspring of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his offspring to rule over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and will have mercy on them."
1 Moreover the word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 the second H8145 CFS time , while he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS was yet H5750 shut up H6113 in the court H2691 of the prison H4307 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
2 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS the maker H6213 thereof , the LORD H3068 EDS that formed H3335 it , to establish H3559 it ; the LORD H3068 EDS is his name H8034 CMS-3MS ;
3 Call H7121 VQI2MP unto H413 PREP-1MS me , and I will answer H6030 thee , and show H5046 thee great H1419 and mighty H1219 things , which thou knowest H3045 not H3808 NADV .
4 For H3588 CONJ thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , the God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 , concerning H5921 PREP the houses H1004 of this H2063 D-DFS city H5892 D-GFS , and concerning H5921 PREP the houses H1004 of the kings H4428 CMP of Judah H3063 , which are thrown down H5422 by H413 PREP the mounts H5550 , and by H413 PREP the sword H2719 ;
5 They come H935 to fight H3898 with H854 PREP the Chaldeans H3778 , but it is to fill H4390 them with H854 PREP the dead bodies H6297 of men H120 D-NMS , whom H834 RPRO I have slain H5221 in mine anger H639 and in my fury H2534 , and for H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS whose H834 RPRO wickedness H7451 I have hid H5641 my face H6440 CMP-1MS from this H2063 D-DFS city H5892 .
6 Behold H2009 , I will bring H4608 it health H724 and cure H4832 , and I will cure H7495 them , and will reveal H1540 unto them the abundance H6283 of peace H7965 NMS and truth H571 .
7 And I will cause the captivity H7622 of Judah H3063 and the captivity H7622 of Israel H3478 to return H7725 , and will build H1129 them , as at the first H7223 .
8 And I will cleanse H2891 them from all H3605 M-CMS their iniquity H5771 , whereby H834 RPRO they have sinned H2398 VQQ3MP against me ; and I will pardon H5545 all H3605 their iniquities H5771 , whereby H834 RPRO they have sinned H2398 VQQ3MP , and whereby H834 RPRO they have transgressed H6586 against me .
9 And it shall be H1961 W-VQQ3FS to me a name H8034 of joy H8342 , a praise H8416 and an honor H8597 before all H3605 NMS the nations H1471 of the earth H776 D-GFS , which H834 RPRO shall hear H8085 VQY3MP all H3605 NMS the good H2896 that H834 RPRO I H595 PPRO-1MS do unto H6213 VQPMS them : and they shall fear H6342 and tremble H7264 for H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS the goodness H2896 and for H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS the prosperity H7965 that H834 RPRO I H595 PPRO-1MS procure H6213 VQPMS unto it .
10 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; Again H5750 ADV there shall be heard H8085 in this H2088 D-PMS place H4725 , which H834 RPRO ye H859 PPRO-2MS say H559 shall be desolate H2720 without H369 man H120 NMS and without H369 beast H929 NFS , even in the cities H5892 B-CFP of Judah H3063 , and in the streets H2351 of Jerusalem H3389 , that are desolate H8074 , without H369 man H120 NMS , and without H369 inhabitant H3427 VQPMS , and without H369 beast H929 ,
11 The voice H6963 CMS of joy H8342 , and the voice H6963 W-CMS of gladness H8057 , the voice H6963 CMS of the bridegroom H2860 , and the voice H6963 W-CMS of the bride H3618 , the voice H6963 CMS of them that shall say H559 , Praise H3034 the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 : for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS is good H2896 AMS ; for H3588 CONJ his mercy H2617 endureth forever H5769 L-NMS : and of them that shall bring H935 the sacrifice of praise H8426 NFS into the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS . For H3588 CONJ I will cause to return H7725 the captivity H7622 of the land H776 D-GFS , as at the first H7223 , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
12 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 ; Again H5750 ADV in this H2088 D-PMS place H4725 , which is desolate H2720 without H369 man H120 NMS and without H5704 W-PREP beast H929 NFS , and in all H3605 WB-CMS the cities H5892 thereof , shall be H1961 VQY3MS a habitation H5116 of shepherds H7462 causing their flocks H6629 to lie down H7257 .
13 In the cities H5892 B-CFP of the mountains H2022 , in the cities H5892 B-CFP of the vale H8219 , and in the cities H5892 of the south H5045 D-NMS , and in the land H776 of Benjamin H1144 , and in the places about H5439 Jerusalem H3389 , and in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 , shall the flocks H6629 pass H5674 again H5750 ADV under H5921 PREP the hands H3027 CFD of him that telleth H4487 them , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
14 Behold H2009 IJEC , the days H3117 NMP come H935 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS , that I will perform H6965 that good H2896 D-NMS thing H1697 D-NMS which H834 RPRO I have promised H1696 VPQ1MS unto H413 PREP the house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 and to H5704 the house H1004 CMS of Judah H3063 .
15 In those H1992 D-PPRO-3MP days H3117 BD-NMP , and at that H1931 time H6256 , will I cause the Branch H6780 of righteousness H6666 NFS to grow up H6779 unto David H1732 L-NAME ; and he shall execute H6213 W-VQQ3MS judgment H4941 NMS and righteousness H6666 in the land H776 B-GFS .
16 In those H1992 D-PPRO-3MP days H3117 BD-NMP shall Judah H3063 be saved H3467 , and Jerusalem H3389 shall dwell H7931 VQY3FS safely H983 L-NMS : and this H2088 W-PMS is the name wherewith H834 RPRO she shall be called H7121 VQY3MS , The LORD H3068 EDS our righteousness H6664 .
17 For H3588 CONJ thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; David H1732 L-NAME shall never H3808 ADV want H3772 VNI3MS a man H376 NMS to sit H3427 VQPMS upon H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 LMS ;
18 Neither H3808 ADV shall the priests H3548 the Levites H3881 want H3772 VNI3MS a man H376 NMS before H6440 me to offer H5927 burnt offerings H5930 NFS , and to kindle H6999 meat offerings H4503 NFS , and to do H6213 sacrifice H2077 continually H3605 NMS .
19 And the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 , saying H559 ,
20 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; If H518 PART ye can break H6565 my covenant H1285 B-CFS-1MS of the day H3117 D-AMS , and my covenant H1285 B-CFS-1MS of the night H3915 AMS , and that there should not H1115 be H1961 VQFC day H3119 and night H3915 W-NMS in their season H6256 ;
21 Then may also H1571 CONJ my covenant H1285 B-CFS-1MS be broken H6565 with H854 PREP David H1732 MMS my servant H5650 CMS-1MS , that he should not have a son H1121 to reign H4427 upon H5921 PREP his throne H3678 ; and with H854 W-PART the Levites H3881 the priests H3548 , my ministers H8334 .
22 As H834 RPRO the host H6635 of heaven H8064 D-NMD cannot H3808 ADV be numbered H5608 , neither H3808 W-NADV the sand H2344 of the sea H3220 D-NMS measured H4058 : so H3651 ADV will I multiply H7235 VHY1MS the seed H2233 NMS of David H1732 MMS my servant H5650 CMS-1MS , and the Levites H3881 that minister unto H8334 me .
23 Moreover the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VPY3MS to H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
24 Considerest H7200 VQQ2MS thou not H3808 D-NPAR what H4100 IGAT this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 have spoken H1696 , saying H559 L-VQFC , The two H8147 ONUM families H4940 which H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath chosen H977 , he hath even cast them off H3988 ? thus they have despised H5006 my people H5971 , that they should be no H1961 more H5750 ADV a nation H1471 NMS before H6440 them .
25 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; If H518 PART my covenant H1285 be not H3808 NADV with day H3119 ADV and night H3915 , and if I have not H3808 NADV appointed H7760 the ordinances H2708 CFP of heaven H8064 NMP and earth H776 ;
26 Then H1571 CONJ will I cast away H3988 VQY1MS the seed H2233 NMS of Jacob H3290 , and David H1732 my servant H5650 CMS-1MS , so that I will not take H3947 any of his seed H2233 to be rulers H4910 over H413 PREP the seed H2233 NMS of Abraham H85 , Isaac H3446 , and Jacob H3290 : for H3588 CONJ I will cause their captivity H7622 to return H7725 , and have mercy H7355 on them .
