Living Bible
5-6 For the time is coming, says the Lord, when I will place a righteous Branch upon King David’s throne.

At that time Judah will be saved and Israel will live in peace.
7 In that day people will no longer say when taking an oath, “As the Lord lives who rescued the people of Israel from the land of Egypt,”
