Jeremias 33:17
For thus saith the Lord: There shall not be cut off from David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel.
The verse in its languages
- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Quia hæc dicit Dominus : Non interibit de David vir qui sedeat super thronum domus Israël :
- Septuagint (Swete)
- The Septuagint has no verse matching this one here: it lacks the verse, or carries it elsewhere in its own order.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- כִּי כֹ֖ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה לֹֽא יִכָּרֵ֣ת לְדָוִ֔ד אִ֕ישׁ יֹשֵׁ֖ב עַל כִּסֵּ֥א בֵֽית יִשְׂרָאֵֽל
Haydock's commentary
David. This was verified in Christ, who is of the house of David; and whose kingdom in his Church shall have no end. (Challoner)
The tribe of Juda continued most eminent till his coming. But there was no king till Hyrcan, and he was of another tribe. The priests governed after Nehemias, till Herod was appointed by the Romans. This must therefore be explained of Christ's eternal kingdom, Genesis xlix. (Calmet)
