24 Have you not considered what these people are saying—that the Lord rejected the two families that he chose? They despise my people in this way, and they do not consider them a nation. 25 The Lord says: If I have not established my covenant with day and night, or the ordinances of heaven and earth, 26 only then will I reject the offspring of Jacob and of my servant David, and only then will I fail to choose one of his sons to rule over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. So I will restore them from captivity, and I will have mercy on them.

24 “Have you not noticed that these people are saying, ‘The Lord has rejected the two kingdoms[a](A) he chose’?

For I will restore their fortunes[b](I) and have compassion(J) on them.’”
