Jeremiah 45

   |   

Message to Baruch

1 This is the message which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to (C1)Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had (C2)written down these words in a book (F1)at Jeremiah's dictation, in the (C3)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying:2 "Thus says the LORD the God of Israel to you, O Baruch:3 'You said, "Ah, woe is me! For the LORD has added sorrow to my pain; I am (C1)weary with my groaning and have found no rest."'4 "Thus you are to say to him, 'Thus says the LORD, "Behold, (C1)what I have built I am about to tear down, and what I have planted I am about to uproot, that is, the whole land."5 'But you, are you (C1)seeking great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for behold, I am going to (C2)bring disaster on all flesh,' declares the LORD, 'but I will (C3)give your life to you as booty in all the places where you may go.'"
