Jeremiah 29:26 in Context — Jeremiah 29
24 E a Semaías o neelamita falarás, dizendo:
25 Assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos, Deus de Israel, dizendo: Enviaste em teu nome cartas a todo o povo que está em Jerusalém, e a Sofonias, filho do sacerdote Maaseias, e a todos os sacerdotes, dizendo:
26 O SENHOR te pôs por sacerdote em lugar do sacerdote Joiada, para que sejas supervisor na casa do SENHOR sobre todo homem furioso e profetizante, para o lançares na prisão e no tronco.
27 Agora, pois, por que não repreendeste a Jeremias de Anatote, que vos profetiza?
28 Porque por isso ele nos mandou dizer na Babilônia: [O cativeiro] será duradouro; edificai casas, e [nelas] morai; plantai hortas, e comei o fruto delas.
