Jeremiah 29:7-13
-
7 And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.
-
8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.
-
9 For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith the LORD.
-
10 For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.
-
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
-
12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
-
13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
