1 These are the words of the letter which Jeremiah the man of God sent from Jerusalem to the leaders, the religious leaders, the men of God, and all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken away from Jerusalem to Babylon. 2 (This was after King Jeconiah and the queen mother, the king's servants, the rulers of Judah and Jerusalem, and the able workmen had left Jerusalem.) 3 The letter was sent with Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, whom King Zedekiah of Judah sent to King Nebuchadnezzar in Babylon. It said, 4 "This is what the Lord of All, the God of Israel, says to all of His people who have been sent from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 ‘Build houses and live in them. Plant gardens and eat their fruit. 6 Take wives and become the fathers of sons and daughters. And take wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, that they may give birth to sons and daughters. Become many there, and do not let your number become less. 7 Work for the well-being of the city where I have sent you to and pray to the Lord for this. For if it is well with the city you live in, it will be well with you.'
