14. The Lord says, “The time is coming when I will do the things I promised. I made a special promise to the people of Israel and Judah.
15. In those days and at that time,I will make a righteous branch sprout from David’s family.He will do what is fair and right in the land.
16. At this time Judah will be saved.The people of Jerusalem will live in safety.The branch will be named:The Lord Does What Is Right.”
