ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૨૭:૧૧
પણ જો કોઈ પ્રજા બાબિલના રાજાની ઝૂંસરી ગરદન પર મૂકશે અને તેના દાસ થશે, તો હું તેને પોતાની ભૂમિમાં રહેવા દઈશ.’ તેઓ ત્યાં ખેતી કરશે અને વસશે. એમ યહોવાહ કહે છે.”
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह २७:११
परन्तु जो जाति बाबेल के राजा का जूआ अपनी गर्दन पर लेकर उसके अधीन रहेगी उसको मैं उसी के देश में रहने दूँगा; और वह उसमें खेती करती हुई बसी रहेगी, यहोवा की यही वाणी है।’”
