Jeremiah 33:14-16 NRSV
The days are surely coming, says the LORD, when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah. 15 In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring up for David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. 16 In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will live in safety. And this is the name by which it will be called: “The LORD is our righteousness.”
I Thessalonians 3:9-13 NRSV
How can we
thank God enough for you in return for all the joy that we feel before
our God because of you? 10 Night and day we pray most earnestly that
we may see you face to face and restore whatever is lacking in your
faith.
11 Now may our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus
direct our way to you. 12 And may the Lord make you increase and
abound in love for one another and for all, just as we abound in love
for you. 13 And may he so strengthen your hearts in holiness that you
may be blameless before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord
Jesus with all his saints.
