New International Reader's Version

⁹ All of them are prophesying lies to you in my name. I have not sent them,” announces the Lord.

¹⁰ The Lord says, “You will be forced to live in Babylon for 70 years. After they are over, I will come to you. My good promise to you will come true. I will bring you back home. ¹¹ I know the plans I have for you,” announces the Lord. “I want you to enjoy success. I do not plan to harm you. I will give you hope for the years to come.
