you descendants of Jacob, my servant,

I will indeed discipline you but only in due measure.
I will not allow you to go entirely unpunished.”

40:4 But now, Jeremiah, today I will set you free
from the chains on your wrists. If you would like to come to Babylon with me, come along and I will take care of you.

You are free to go anywhere in the land you want to go.
Go wherever you choose.”
