Jeremiah 29:8 in Context — Jeremiah 29

6 Tomai esposas, e gerai filhos e filhas, e tomai esposas para vossos filhos, e dai vossas filhas a homens, para que gerem filhos e filhas; e ali multiplicai-vos, e não vos diminuais.

7 E buscai a paz da cidade para onde eu vos levei, e orai por ela ao SENHOR; porque na paz dela vós tereis paz.

8 Porque assim diz o SENHOR dos exércitos, Deus de Israel: Os vossos profetas, que há entre vós, e vossos adivinhos não vos enganem; nem escutais a vossos sonhos, que vós sonhais.

9 Pois eles vos profetizam falsamente em meu nome; eu não os enviei, diz o SENHOR.

10 Porque assim diz o SENHOR: Certamente que, quando se cumprirem setenta anos na Babilônia, eu vos visitarei; e cumprirei sobre vós minha boa palavra, trazendo-vos de volta a este lugar.
