10 For thus says the Lord: After (A)seventy years are completed at Babylon, I will visit you and perform My good word toward you, and cause you to (B)return to this place. 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will (C)call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will (D)listen to you. 13 And (E)you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me (F)with all your heart. 14 (G)I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity; (H)I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive.
