Jeremiah 27:10-12

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ They are ·telling [^Lprophesying to] you lies that will cause you to be taken far from your homeland. I will ·force you to leave [drive you from] your homes, and you will ·die in another land [perish]. ¹¹ But the nations who ·put themselves under the control [^Lbring their necks under the yoke] of the king of Babylon and serve him I will let stay in their own country, says the Lord. The people from those nations will live in their own land and farm it.”’”

¹² I gave the same message to Zedekiah king of Judah. I said, “Put yourself under the ·control [^Lyoke] of the king of Babylon and serve him, and you will live.
