Yirmeyah 29:4-11

Yirmeyah 29:4-11 TOJB2011

Thus saith HASHEM Tzva'os Elohei Yisroel, unto all that are carried away into the Golus, whom I have caused to be carried away from Yerushalayim unto Bavel; Build ye batim (houses), and dwell in them; and plant gannot (gardens), and eat the p'ri (fruit) of them; Take ye nashim, and father banim and banot; and take nashim for your banim, and give your banot to anashim, that they may bear banim and banot; that ye may be increased there, and not diminished. And seek the shalom of the city where I have caused you to be carried away into the Golus, and daven unto HASHEM for it; for in the shalom thereof shall ye have shalom. For thus saith HASHEM Tzva'os Elohei Yisroel: Let not your nevi'im and your kesamim that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither pay heed to your chalomot which ye cause to be dreamed. For they prophesy b'sheker (falsely) unto you in My Name; I have not sent them, saith HASHEM. For thus saith HASHEM, That after shiv'im shanah (seventy years) are accomplished at Bavel I will visit you, and perform My Davar Hatov toward you, in causing you to return to this makom. For I know the machshavot (thoughts, plans) that I think toward you, saith HASHEM, machshavot shalom, and not of ra'ah, to give you an acharit (future) and a tikvah (hope).
