Jeremiah 29:27 in Context — Jeremiah 29

25 Así habló Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, diciendo: Por cuanto enviaste letras en tu nombre á todo el pueblo que está en Jerusalem, y á Sophonías sacerdote hijo de Maasías, y á todos los sacerdotes, diciendo:

26 Jehová te ha puesto por sacerdote en lugar de Joiada sacerdote, para que presidáis en la casa de Jehová sobre todo hombre furioso y profetizante, poniéndolo en el calabozo y en el cepo.

27 ¿Por qué pues no has ahora reprendido á Jeremías de Anathoth, que os profetiza [falsamente]?

28 Porque por eso nos envió á decir en Babilonia: Largo va [el cautiverio]: edificad casas, y morad; plantad huertos, y comed el fruto de ellos.

29 Y Sophonías sacerdote había leído esta carta á oídos de Jeremías profeta.
