Exegesis
The pairing mishpat u-tse-daqah {מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה | miš-pāṭ u-ṣə-dā-qāh} ‘justice and righteousness’ forms a typical prophetic collocation, here rendered idiomatically as “justice and righteousness.”
In context — Jeremiah 23:5
“Behold, days are coming,” declares the LORD , “when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch , and He will reign as king and act wisely, and He will do justice and righteousness in the land.”
