Jeremiah 33:17-22

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁷ “For this is what the Lord says: David will never fail to have a man sitting on the throne of the house of Israel.^{(A) 18} The Levitical priests will never fail to have a man always before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to make sacrifices.”^(B)

¹⁹ The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: ²⁰ “This is what the Lord says: If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night so that day and night cease to come at their regular time,^{(C) 21} then also my covenant with my servant David^(D) may be broken. If that could happen, then he would not have a son reigning on his throne and the Levitical priests would not be my ministers.^{(E) 22} Even as the stars of heaven cannot be counted, and the sand of the sea cannot be measured,^(F) so too I will make innumerable the descendants of my servant David and the Levites who minister to me.”
