Jeremiah 30:9

Where are Your former lovingkindnesses, O Lord, Which You swore to David in Your faithfulness?

“Behold, I have given him as a witness to the peoples, A ruler and commander for the peoples.

“Behold, the days are coming,” declares Yahweh, “When I will raise up for David a righteous Branch; And He will reign as king and prosper And do justice and righteousness in the land.

‘For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares Yahweh, ‘plans for peace and not for calamity, to give you a future and a hope.

‘And their mighty one shall be one of them, And their ruler shall come forth from their midst; And I will bring Him near, and He shall approach Me; For who would dare to give his heart as security to approach Me?’ declares Yahweh.

‘In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch of David to branch forth; and He shall do justice and righteousness on the earth.

“Then I will establish over them one shepherd, My servant David, and he will shepherd them; he will shepherd them himself and be their shepherd.

“And I, Yahweh, will be their God, and My servant David will be prince among them; I, Yahweh, have spoken.

“And My servant David will be king over them, and they will all have one shepherd; and they will walk in My judgments and keep My statutes and do them.

Afterward the sons of Israel will return and seek Yahweh their God and David their king; and they will come in dread to Yahweh and to His goodness in the last days.

“Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.”
