Jeremiah 29:4–7 ESV
Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem (City of God) to Babylon (City of Man): Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. But seek the welfare of the city (City of Man) where I have sent you (City of God) into exile, and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its (City of Man’s) welfare you will find your (City of God’s) welfare.
