Jeremiah 33:23-26
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
23 The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 24 Have you not observed how these people say, “The two families that the Lord chose have been rejected by him,” and how they hold my people in such contempt that they no longer regard them as a nation?(A) 25 Thus says the Lord: Only if I had not established my covenant with day and night and the ordinances of heaven and earth(B) 26 would I reject the offspring of Jacob and of my servant David and not choose any of his descendants as rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and will have mercy upon them.(C)

Jeremiah 33:23-26
International Standard Version
23 This message from the Lord came to Jeremiah: 24 “Haven’t you noticed what these people have been saying?—‘The Lord rejected the two families that he had chosen!’ They have contempt for my people and no longer consider them a nation. 25 This is what the Lord says: ‘If I had not established my covenant for day and night and the laws that govern[a] the heavens and earth, 26 then I might reject the descendants[b] of Jacob and my servant David by not taking some of his descendants as rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Indeed, I’ll restore their fortunes, and I’ll have compassion on them.’”
