Overwrite values ​​returned by jQuery?

Question

JavaScript

onSelect: function(suggestion) {
console.log(suggestion);
$('.md-state-status').text(suggestion.data.state.status); //возвращает дату и выводит ACTIVE или LIQUIDATING  или LIQUIDATED 
   }
});

<td class="tablles-cell3"><p class="md-state-status">ACTIVE</p></td> <!-- уже исполненный -->

How to reassign ACTIVE to "active" , LIQUIDATING to "liquidated" , LIQUIDATED to "liquidated".

<td class="tablles-cell3"><p class="md-state-status">действующая</p></td> <!-- Как сделать так-->

Sincerely ! Thanks in advance !
