God’s Covenant with David

14 “Look, the days are coming”—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
“when I will fulfill the good promise
that I have spoken
concerning the house of Israel
and the house of Judah.(A)
15 In those days and at that time
I will cause a Righteous Branch(B)
to sprout up for David,
and he will administer justice
and righteousness in the land.
16 In those days Judah will be saved,
and Jerusalem will dwell securely,(C)
and this is what she will be named:
The Lord Is Our Righteousness.[a]
