Jeremiah 23:6 In his days Judah shall be saved,and Israel shall dwell safely:and this is his name whereby he shall be called,THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Jeremiah 33:15-16 In those days,and at that time,will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David;and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. (16) In those days shall Judah be saved,and Jerusalem shall dwell safely:and this is the name wherewith she shall be called,The LORD our righteousness. (emphasis mine)
Robert McCheyne wrote a poem about Jehovah-Tsidkenu which means “The LORD Our Righteousness.”I found the poem in J. Vernon McGee’s Through the Bible series on Lamentations.
I oft read with pleasure,to soothe or engage,
Isaiah’s wild measure,or John’s simple page:
But e’en when they pictured the blood-sprinkled tree,
Jehovah-Tsidkenu was nothing to me.
Like tears from the daughters of Zion that roll,
I wept when the waters went over His soul;
Yet thought not that my sins had nailed to the tree
Jehovah-Tsidkenu:’twas nothing to me.
When free grace awoke me by light from on high,
Then legal fears shook me —I trembled to die.
No refuge,no safety in self could I see,
Jehovah-Tsidkenu my Saviour must be.
My terrors all vanished before that sweet name;
My guilty fears banished,with boldness I came,
To drink at the fountain,life-giving and free;
Jehovah-Tsidkenu is all things to me.
