Jeremiah 45
1 The message that Jeremiah the prophet
spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when
he wrote these words in a book at the
mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of
Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah,
saying,
2 “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to you,
Baruch:
3 ‘You said, “Woe is me now! For Yahweh
has added sorrow to my pain! I am weary
with my groaning, and I find no rest.” ’
4 “You shall tell him, Yahweh says: ‘Behold,
that which I have built, I will break
down, and that which I have planted I will
pluck up; and this in the whole land.
5 Do you seek great things for yourself?
Don’t seek them; for, behold, I will bring
evil on all flesh,’ says Yahweh, ‘but I will
let you escape with your life wherever you
go.’ ”
