Jeremiah 29:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ Work for the good of the city where I’ve taken you as captives, and pray to the Lord for that city. When it prospers, you will also prosper.

⁸ This is what the Lord of Armies, the God of Israel, says: Don’t let the prophets or the mediums who are among you trick you. Don’t even listen to your own dreams. ⁹ These people are prophesying lies to you in my name. I didn’t send them, declares the Lord.
