¹ The word that Yirmeyahu the prophet spoke to Barukh the son of Neriyah, when he wrote these word in a book at the mouth of Yirmeyahu, in the fourth year of Yehoiakim the son of Yoshiyahu, king of Yehudah, saying, ² Thus says the LORD, the God of Yisra'el, to you, Barukh: ³ You did say, Woe is me now! for the LORD has added sorrow to my pain; I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest. ⁴ Thus shall you tell him, Thus says the LORD: Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up; and this in the whole land. ⁵ Seek you great things for yourself? Don't seek them; for, behold, I will bring evil on all flesh, says the LORD; but your life will I give to you for a prey in all places where you go.
