28 For he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, “Your exile will be long; ^ybuild houses and live in them, and plant gardens and eat their produce.”’”

26 ^gAnd they shall dwell securely in it, and they shall build houses and plant vineyards. They shall dwell securely, ^hwhen I execute judgments upon all their neighbors ^dwho have treated them with contempt. ^xThen they will know that I am the Lord their God.”
