Jeremiah 42:9-11

The Voice

Jeremiah: ⁹ You sent me to present your request to the Eternal, the God of Israel. Here is His answer: ¹⁰ “If you will stay here in this land, I will bless and protect you. I will rebuild you and not tear you down. I will plant you anew and not uproot you. For I deeply regret the disaster I had to bring upon you. ¹¹ I know you are afraid of this king of Babylon, but don’t fear him any longer. For I, the Eternal One, declare that I am with you and I will save you and rescue you from his authority.
