- Kapitel 33 -

1
Then the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah a second time, while he was still shut within the courtyard of the guard, and he said,
2
“Yahweh the maker, says this-Yahweh, who forms in order to establish-Yahweh is his name,
3
‘Call to me, and I will answer you. I will demonstrate great things to you, mysteries that you do not understand.’
4
For Yahweh, God of Israel, says this concerning the houses in this city and the houses of the kings of Judah that are torn down because of the siege ramps and the sword,
5
’The Chaldeans are coming to fight and to fill the houses with corpses of people whom I will kill in my wrath and fury, when I hide my face from this city because of all their wickedness.
6
But see, I am about to bring healing and a cure, for I will heal them and will bring to them abundance, peace, and faithfulness.
7
For I will bring back the fortunes of Judah and Israel; I will build them up as in the beginning.
8
Then I will purify them from all the iniquity that they have committed against me. I will pardon all the iniquities that they have done against me, and all the ways that they rebelled against me.
9
For this city will become for me an object of joy, a song of praise and honor for all the nations of the earth who will hear of all the good things that I am going to do for it. Then they will tremble because of all the good things and the peace that I will give to it.’
10
Yahweh says this, ’In this place about which you are now saying, “It is desolate. There is neither man nor beast in the cities of Judah, and the streets of Jerusalem are uninhabited, with neither man nor beast.”
11
-Again there will be heard here sounds of rejoicing and celebration, sounds of bridegrooms and brides, sounds of people who say, “Give thanks to Yahweh of hosts, for he is good, and his covenant faithfulness is unending.” Bring an offering of thanksgiving to my house, for I will restore the fortunes of the land as in the beginning,’ says Yahweh.
12
Yahweh of hosts says this: ’In this desolate place, where now there is neither man nor beast, there will again be in all its cities a grazing place for shepherds who lead their flocks to lie down.
13
In the cities in the hill country, the lowlands, and the Negev-in the land of Benjamin and all around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah-the flocks will again pass under the hands of the ones counting them,’ says Yahweh.

The Covenant with David

14
’Look! Days are coming-this is Yahweh’s declaration-when I will do what I have promised for the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
15
In those days and at that time I will make a righteous branch to grow for David, and he will carry out justice and righteousness in the land.
16
In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will live in security, for this is what she will be called, “Yahweh is our righteousness.”’
17
For Yahweh says this: ’A man from David’s line will never be lacking to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,
18
nor will a man from the Levitical priests be lacking before me to raise burnt offerings, to burn food offerings, and to perform grain offerings all the time.’”
19
The word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah and said,
20
“Yahweh says this: ’If you can break my covenant with day and night so that there will no longer be day or night at their proper times,
21
then you will be able to break my covenant with David my servant, so that he will no longer have a son to sit on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests, my servants.
22
As the hosts of heaven cannot be counted, and as the sand of the seashores cannot be measured, it is like that I will increase the descendants of David my servant and the Levites who serve me.’”
23
The word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah and said,
24
“Have you not considered what this people has declared when they said, ‘The two clans that Yahweh chose, now he has rejected them’? In this way they despise my people, saying that they are no longer a nation in their sight.
25
I, Yahweh, say this, ’If I have not established the covenant of day and night, and if I have not fixed the laws of heaven and earth,
26
then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and David my servant, and not bring from them a person to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and show mercy to them.’”
1
Moreover the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying,
2
The LORD who does it, the LORD who forms it to establish itthe LORD is his name, says:
3
Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’
4
For the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defense against the mounds and against the sword:
5
While men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city,
6
behold, I will bring it health and healing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
7
I will restore the fortunes of Judah and Israel, and will build them as at the first.
8
I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me and by which they have transgressed against me.
9
This city will be to me for a name of joy, for praise, and for glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them, and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I provide to it.’”
10
The LORD says: “Yet again there will be heard in this place, about which you say, ‘It is waste, without man and without animal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,’
11
the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Armies, for the LORD is good, for his loving kindness endures forever;’ who bring thanksgiving into the LORD’s house. For I will cause the captivity of the land to be reversed as at the first,” says the LORD.
12
The LORD of Armies says: “Yet again there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13
In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of him who counts them,” says the LORD.

The Covenant with David

14
Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
15
In those days and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. He will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16
In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. This is the name by which she will be called: The LORD our righteousness.”
17
For the LORD says: “David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel.
18
The Levitical priests won’t lack a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.”
19
The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
20
The LORD says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time,
21
then my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he won’t have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levitical priests, my ministers.
22
As the army of the sky can’t be counted, and the sand of the sea can’t be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me.’”
23
The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
24
“Don’t consider what this people has spoken, saying, ‘Has the LORD cast off the two families which he chose?’ Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.”
25
The LORD says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
26
then I will also cast away the offspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his offspring to be rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed and will have mercy on them.”
