I will choose rulers for them who will truly take care of them. My people will no longer be afraid. They will all be safe.’ That is what the Lord says.

The Lord says, ‘The time will come when I do this:

I will cause a descendant of David to be born.
He will be righteous.
He will grow like a branch on the tree of David's family.
He will rule as king in a wise way.
He will do what is right and fair in the land.
While he rules, the people of Judah will be safe.
    And Israel's people will live in peace.
People will give this name to him:
    “The Lord is our righteous Saviour.” ’
