Jeremiah 33:1 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying:

Jeremiah 33:2 Thus saith the Lord, who will do, and will form it, and prepare it, the Lord is his name.

Jeremiah 33:3 Cry to me and I will hear thee: and I will shew thee great things, and sure things which thou knowest not.

Study Lenses

The verse centers on "word", "lord", "came", "jeremiah", "second", "time", "shut", and "court". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "word" and "lord", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The next verse adds "Thus saith the Lord who will do...", so "word" and "lord" should be read forward into that movement. In Jeremiah context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "word" and "lord" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
