Jeremiah 42:7-12

7And it came to pass at the end of ten days, that the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah.

8And he called Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, and all the people from the least even unto the greatest,

9and said unto them, Thus saith Jehovah the 1God of Israel, to whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him:

10If ye will still abide in this land, then will I build you, and not overthrow [you], and I will plant you, and not pluck [you] up; for I repent me of the evil that I have done unto you.

11Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid: be not afraid of him, saith Jehovah; for I will be with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.

12And I will grant mercies to you, that he may have mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land.
