New Testament

Jeremiah 29:8-12 New Century Version (NCV)

8. The Lord All-Powerful, the God of Israel, says: “Don’t let the prophets among you and the people who do magic fool you. Don’t listen to their dreams.

9. They are prophesying lies to you, saying that their message is from me. But I did not send them,” says the Lord.

10. This is what the Lord says: “Babylon will be powerful for seventy years. After that time I will come to you, and I will keep my promise to bring you back to Jerusalem.

11. I say this because I know what I am planning for you,” says the Lord. “I have good plans for you, not plans to hurt you. I will give you hope and a good future.

12. Then you will call my name. You will come to me and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
