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.

I will look well unto thee - the very words of Nebuchadnezzar's charge ().

All the land is before thee, where it seemeth good ... there go - as Abimelech said to Abraham; (, margin.) Jeremiah alone had the option given him of staying where he pleased, when all the rest were either carried off or forced to remain there.
