Jeremiah 29:4-14
4ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, unto allH3605 the captivityH1540, whomH834 I have causedH430 to be carriedH1540 awayH1540 captiveH1540 from JerusalemH3389 unto BabylonH894:
5BuildH1129 ye housesH1004, and dwellH3427 in them; and plantH5193 gardensH1593, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 of them;
6TakeH3947 ye wivesH802, and begetH3205 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 notH408 diminishedH4591.
7And seekH1875 the peaceH7965 of the cityH5892 whither I have causedH1961 youH834 to be carriedH1540 awayH1540 captiveH1540, and prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 for it: for in the peaceH7965 thereof shall ye have peaceH7965.
8For thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: LetH408 notH408 your prophetsH5030 that be in the midstH7130 of youH859, and your divinersH7080, deceiveH5377 youH859, neitherH408 hearken ye to your dreamsH2472 whichH834 ye cause to be dreamedH2492.
9For they prophesyH5012 falselyH8267 unto youH3588 in my nameH8034: I have notH3808 sentH7971 them, saith the LORDH3068.
10For thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, AfterH5921 seventyH7657 yearsH8141 be accomplishedH6965 for BabylonH894, I will visitH6485 youH3588, and perform my goodH2896 wordH1697 towardH413 youH3588, in causing youH3588 to returnH7725 to this placeH4725.
11For I knowH3045 the thoughtsH4284 that I thinkH2803 towardH5921 youH834, saith the LORDH3068, thoughtsH4284 of peaceH7965, and notH3808 of evilH7451, to giveH5414 youH834 hopeH8615 in your latterH319 endH319.
12And ye shall callH7121 uponH7121 meH413, and ye shall goH1980 and prayH6419 unto meH413, and I will hearken unto youH853.
13And ye shall seekH1245 meH1875, and findH4672 meH1875, when ye shall searchH1245 for meH1875 with allH3605 year heartH3824.
14And I will be foundH4672 of youH834, saith the LORDH3068, and I will turnH7725 againH7725 your captivityH7622, and I will gatherH6908 youH834 from allH3605 the nationsH1471, and from allH3605 the placesH4725 whither I have drivenH5080 youH834, saith the LORDH3068; and I will bringH7725 youH834 againH7725 unto the placeH4725 whence I causedH834 youH834 to be carriedH1540 awayH7725 captiveH1540.
