Jeremiah 29:4-14
4ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, unto all the captivity, whom I have caused to be carried away captive from JerusalemH3389 unto BabylonH894: 5BuildH1129 ye housesH1004, and dwellH3427 in them; and plantH5193 gardensH1593, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 of them. 6TakeH3947 ye wivesH802, and beget sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323; and takeH3947 wivesH802 for your sonsH1121, and giveH5414 your daughtersH1323 to husbandsH376, that they may bearH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323: and multiplyH7235 ye there, and be not diminishedH4591. 7And seekH1875 the peaceH7965 of the cityH5892 whither I have caused you to beH1961 carried away captive, and prayH6419 unto Jehovah for it; for in the peaceH7965 thereof shall ye have peaceH7965. 8For thusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: Let not your prophetsH5030 that are in the midstH7130 of you, and your divinersH7080, deceiveH5377 you; neither hearken ye to your dreamsH2472 which ye cause to be dreamedH2492. 9For they prophesyH5012 falsely unto you in my nameH8034: I have not sentH7971 them, saith Jehovah. 10For thusH3541 saith Jehovah, After seventyH7657 yearsH8141 are accomplished for BabylonH894, I will visitH6485 you, and perform my goodH2896 wordH1697 toward you, in causing you to returnH7725 to this placeH4725. 11For I knowH3045 the thoughtsH4284 that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughtsH4284 of peaceH7965, and not of evilH7451, to giveH5414 you hopeH8615 in your latterH319 endH319. 12And ye shall callH7121 upon me, and ye shall goH1980 and prayH6419 unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 13And ye shall seekH1245 me, and findH4672 me, when ye shall searchH1245 for me with all your heartH3824. 14And I will be foundH4672 of you, saith Jehovah, and I will turnH7725 again your captivityH7622, and I will gatherH6908 you from all the nationsH1471, and from all the placesH4725 whither I have drivenH5080 you, saith Jehovah; and I will bringH7725 you again unto the placeH4725 whence I caused you to be carried awayH7725 captive.
