The Branch of Righteousness
1 “Woe ato the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture!” says the Lord.
2 Therefore thus says the Lord God of Israel against the shepherds who feed My people: “You have scattered My flock, driven them away, and not attended to them. aBehold, I will attend to you for the evil of your doings,” says the Lord.
3 “But aI will gather the remnant of My flock out of all countries where I have driven them, and bring them back to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.
4 I will set up ashepherds over them who will feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, nor shall they be lacking,” says the Lord.
5 “Behold, athe days are coming,” says the Lord,
“That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness;
A King shall reign and1 prosper,
bAnd execute1 judgment and righteousness in the2 earth.
“That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness;
A King shall reign and1 prosper,
bAnd execute1 judgment and righteousness in the2 earth.
6 aIn His days Judah will be saved,
And Israel bwill dwell safely;
Now cthis is His name by which He will be called: 1THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
And Israel bwill dwell safely;
Now cthis is His name by which He will be called: 1THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
