How to switch TextView between values every 5 seconds

I don't know if using Threads is the practice for what I am trying to achieve so please feel free to amend the code where you wish.

I am trying to implement a feature in my app where a TextView switches to 1 value and thereafter reverts back to the initial value every 5 seconds. I have implemented the following using on a thread:

    layoutDate.setText(firstNumber);

    Thread numberSwitch = new Thread() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        while(!isInterrupted()) {
            try {

                Thread.sleep(5000);

                runOnUiThread(new Runnable () {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {

                        layoutDate.setText(secondNumber);                   

                    }
                });
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }       
    }
};

numberSwitch.start();

I have tried adding layoutDate.setText(firstNumber) just after the runUiOnThread and also after the nested run but it still doesn't work as I want it to.

I want to achieve something like the following:

You can use Handler with a runnable.

private TextView textView;
private Handler handler;

in your onCreate()

textView = findViewById(R.id.tv_bt_msg);
textView.setText("secondNumber");

handler = new Handler();
//Change the textview after 5 seconds
handler.postDelayed(runnable, 5000);

Runnable to change text every 5 seconds

private Runnable runnable = new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            String currentString = textView.getText().toString();
            if(currentString.equals("secondNumber")){
                currentString = "firstNumber";
            }else{
                currentString = "secondNumber";
            }
            final String tempString = currentString;
            runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    textView.setText(tempString);
                }
            });
            //Change the textview again after 5 seconds
            handler.postDelayed(runnable, 5000);
        }
    };

Use this to removeCallbacks

handler.removeCallbacks(runnable);
