20 That they may walk in My statutes and keep My ordinances, and do them. And they shall be My people, and I will be their God.

24 And the Spirit lifted me up and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to the exiles. Then the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 And I told the exiles everything that the Lord had shown me.
