Jeremiah 42:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 If indeed you will remain in this land, I will build you up, and not tear you down; I will plant you, not uproot you; for I repent of the evil I have done you.(A) 11 Do not fear the king of Babylon, as you do now. Do not fear him—oracle of the Lord—for I am with you to save you, to rescue you from his power.(B) 12 I will take pity on you, so that he will have pity on you and let you return to your land.(C)
