Jeremiah 29:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴ This is what the Lord of Armies, the God of Israel, says to all those who were taken captive from Jerusalem to Babylon: ⁵ Build houses, and live in them. Plant gardens, and eat what they produce. ⁶ Get married, and have sons and daughters. Find wives for your sons, and let your daughters get married so that they can have sons and daughters. Grow in number there; don’t decrease.
