Jeremiah 23:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And I will gather the [a]remnant of my sheep out of all countries, whither I had driven them, and will bring them again to their folds, and they shall grow and increase:
4 And I will set up shepherds over them, which shall feed them: and they shall dread no more nor be afraid, neither shall any of them be lacking, saith the Lord.
5 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will raise unto David a righteous [b]branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
