Jeremiah 29:10-14
English Standard Version
10 “For thus says the Lord: (A)When seventy years are completed for Babylon, (B)I will visit you, (C)and I will fulfill to you my promise (D)and bring you back to this place. 11 (E)For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare[a] and not for evil, (F)to give you a future and a hope. 12 (G)Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, (H)and I will hear you. 13 (I)You will seek me and find me, when you seek me (J)with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you, declares the Lord, (K)and I will restore your fortunes and (L)gather you from all the nations and all the places (M)where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.

A New Commandment
31 When he had gone out, Jesus said, (A)“Now is the Son of Man glorified, and (B)God is glorified in him. 32 If God is glorified in him, (C)God will also glorify him in himself, and (D)glorify him at once. 33 Little children, (E)yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and just (F)as I said to the Jews, so now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’ 34 (G)A new commandment (H)I give to you, (I)that you love one another: (J)just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. 35 (K)By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
