KJV - Jeremiah 40:4
And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which were upon thine hand. If it seem good unto thee to come with me into Babylon, come; and I will look well unto thee: but if it seem ill unto thee to come with me into Babylon, forbear: behold, all the land is before thee: whither it seemeth good and convenient for thee to go, thither go.
And now, see, I'm releasing you from the restraints on your hands today. If you want to join me in Babylon, come, and I'll take care of you; but if you don't want to come with me to Babylon, don't; you can go wherever you like in the land, wherever it seems best for you.
