Jeremías 29

Pues él nos envió a decir a Babilonia: El exilio será largo; construyan casas y habiten en ellas; planten huertos y coman de su fruto” ’.

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.

For therefore he sent unto us in Babylon, saying, This captivity is long: build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
