Jeremiah 42:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 If ye will dwell in this land, then I will build you, and not destroy you, and I will plant you, and not root you out: for I [a]repent me of the evil that I have done unto you.
11 Fear not for the king of Babel, of whom ye are afraid: be not afraid of him, saith the Lord: for I am with you, to save you, and to deliver you [b]from his hand,
12 And I will grant you mercy that he may have compassion upon you, and he shall cause you to [c]dwell in your own land.
