For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.	But the nations that bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, those will I let remain still in their own land, saith the LORD; and they shall till it, and dwell therein.
