Scripture never contradicts Scripture.

Agreed. Which means you must explain a lot away.

The word of the L-RD came to Jeremiah: "This is what the L-RD says: 'If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night, so that day and night no longer come at their appointed time, then my covenant with David my servant—and my covenant with the Levites who are priests ministering before me—can be broken and David will no longer have a descendant to reign on his throne. I will make the descendants of David my servant and the Levites who minister before me as countless as the stars of the sky and as measureless as the sand on the seashore.' " The word of the L-RD came to Jeremiah: -"Have you not noticed that these people are saying, 'The L-RD has rejected the two kingdoms he chose'? (this is talking about you, tabsternager) So they despise my people and no longer regard them as a nation.

This is what the L-RD says: 'If I have not established my covenant with day and night and the fixed laws of heaven and earth, then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his sons to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them.' "
Jeremiah 33:19-25

Why not just go aheard and cut out the front 3/4 of your Bible. You don't use it in your twisted idolatry.

On the contrary, it is Christian Zionists who must either discount or twist many parts of the Bible in order to suit their belief.

Scripture is clear that the true descendants of David are those who believe. Ruth, a Moabite, was considered one of Abraham’s descendants. Why? Because of her faith:

Romans 2: No, a man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code.

Galatians 3:29: If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

BTW, the promise is not about inheriting a strip of land in the Middle East — the land in the OT was a type and shadow. The promise is inheritance of the true Promised Land, by faith alone.

Heb. 11:9-10 By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
