Jeremiah 33:14-16
33:14 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.
33:15 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.
33:16 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."
Luke 21:25-36
21:25 "There will be signs in the
sun, the moon, and the stars, and on the earth distress among nations confused
by the roaring of the sea and the waves.
21:26 People will faint from
fear and foreboding of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the
heavens will be shaken.
21:27 Then they will see 'the Son of Man coming
in a cloud' with power and great glory.
21:28 Now when these things begin
to take place, stand up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing
near."
21:29 Then he told them a parable: "Look at the fig tree and all
the trees;
21:30 as soon as they sprout leaves you can see for yourselves
and know that summer is already near.
21:31 So also, when you see these
things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.
21:32
Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things have taken
place.
21:33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass
away.
21:34 "Be on guard so that your hearts are not weighed down with
dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of this life, and that day catch you
unexpectedly,
21:35 like a trap. For it will come upon all who live on
the face of the whole earth.
21:36 Be alert at all times, praying that
you may have the strength to escape all these things that will take place, and
to stand before the Son of Man."
