Jeremiah 29:26-28

Complete Jewish Bible

²⁶ Your letter said, “Adonai has made you cohen in place of Y’hoyada the cohen, in order to have officials in Adonai’s house who will arrest any crazy person who makes himself out to be a prophet, so that you can restrain him in stocks and collar. ²⁷ So why haven’t you rebuked Yirmeyahu of ‘Anatot, who makes himself out to be a prophet for you? ²⁸ He even sends word to us in Bavel saying that the exile will last a long time; so build houses and live in them, plant gardens and eat what they produce.”
