42 For this is what the Lord says: ‘(A)Just as I brought all this great disaster on this people, so I am going to (B)bring on them all the good that I am promising them. 43 And (C)fields will be purchased in this land of which you say, “(D)It is a desolation, without man or animal; it has been handed over to the Chaldeans.” 44 People will buy fields for money, [a](E)sign and seal [b]deeds, and call in witnesses in the (F)land of Benjamin, in the areas surrounding Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, in the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the [c]Negev; for I will (G)restore their fortunes,’ declares the Lord.”

Jeremiah 32:42-44
International Standard Version
42 “Indeed, this is what the Lord says: ‘Just as I’m bringing all this great disaster on this people, so I’ll bring on them all the good things that I’m promising concerning them. 43 Fields will be bought in this land about which you will say, “It is a desolate place without people or animals. It is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.” 44 People[a] will buy fields for money, sign deeds, seal them, and call witnesses in the land of Benjamin, in the areas around Jerusalem, in the towns of Judah, the towns of the hill country, the towns of the Shephelah,[b] and the towns of the Negev,[c] for I’ll restore their fortunes,’ declares the Lord.”
