Jeremiah 33:24-26
24“Have you not observed that these people are saying, ‘The Lord has rejected the two clans that he chose’? Thus they have despised my people so that they are no longer a nation in their sight. 25Thus says the Lord: gIf I have not established my covenant with day and night and the fixed order of heaven and earth, 26then I will reject the offspring of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his offspring to rule over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. hFor I will restore their fortunes and will have mercy on them.”Acts 13:32-34
32And we bring you the good news ithat what God promised to the fathers, 33 jthis he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus, as also it is written in the second Psalm,k“‘You are my Son,
today I have begotten you.’
34And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, l, mno more to return to corruption, he has spoken in this way,
“‘I will give you nthe holy and sure blessings of David.’
